to come in and be seasonal with it. Anyway.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
Also, tomatoes or gross.

(02:59):
takes a deeper dive than to his segment on our show.

But here's a little surprise for everyone. For the next
couple of weeks, everyone will be able to tune into

show him some love because James is so old that
he remembers when tomatoes were potatoes in season.

Speaker 3 (04:01):
I have a funny story about James Lott Junior if
you'll indulge me for a minute.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
So you'll indulge.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Back in Ohio, there is a place called Skyline Chili.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yes, you talk about it every time.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
I do talk about it a lot because it's good. Well,
they sell it in cans, right, but they only sell
it in cans at grocery stores like back East, like
in Ohio, Kentucky, and then in Florida randomly, because everything
that's in Ohio has to be in Florida for some reason,
because Ohio people go like, I guess Florida is like

(04:33):
their second home. Whatever friends do.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
That can't confirm.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Anyway, Yeah, anyway, So James Lott Junior, so basically, so
I'm sorry, Ralph's here in southern California has recently started
carrying the cans of Skyline Chili, so I can now
go buy a can of Skyline Chili whenever I want
and you know, young yum. Anyway, James Lott Juniors told
me that he's essentially the reason that the West coast

(04:59):
has has gotten Skyline Chili because he would order can't
like cases of cans off Amazon and have it delivered
to the Amazon store. I think there's one like near Englewood,
the Amazon Fresh store, and so because they were seeing
it being ordered to southern California and like more people

(05:22):
like somehow it's snowballed into like a wider breach or whatever.
And so at least this is the story he's told me,
the one responsible for Chili to the West.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
So maybe I should I should do that and see
if I can start the trend with my favorite soda.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
What's your favorite soda?

Speaker 5 (05:45):
Big red ooh m.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
Anyway, here see you James. His influences wide reaching, no
snow bounds.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
J l J. Making things happen, happen. I love that you.
You said it as like I mean the way he
tells it. I'm like, true, it's very true. Leg James
Gia tells it. He was frolicking in the in the
fields with Adam and Eve.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Hey, you only get one of those today.

Speaker 1 (06:30):
Nah, there was one week where I didn't. So, Hi, mom,
how are you? Uh? Yeah, all right, what are we doing? Oh?
We're diition days? Uh? What do we think? Mm hmm?

Speaker 5 (06:45):
What do we think?

Speaker 1 (06:47):
What do we think about this week's episodes of Days
of Our Lives? Everyone?

Speaker 5 (06:52):
It wasn't okay, okay, okay, story line was better than most.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
I flew by. I was really only paying attention to
one storyline that actually got movement. But then it's like
movement that was way overdue. So I'm like, okay, I'll
take it. I'll take it. I'll take it.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
People in the chat are so shady, so shady. All right, Well,
let's like let's get into it, shall we so that way,
maybe this week's show was in two hours, but maybe
it's just like I don't know, an hour.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
We'll see. We'll only have tea today.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
So well, it could it could end up being a
two hour show if Rceli finds something to rint about.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
I think so, we'll see.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Definitely is, but we are going to talk all about
it right now. It is now time to start, all right,
let's kick things off with our very first storyline we have.

Speaker 3 (08:18):
There's two sets of storylines in the okay.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Uh huh, all's fair in love and war? Only love
and war. I think only love and war, and we're
talking about basically the trial and E J and Bell.

(08:45):
I feel bad.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
I feel bad for Johnny and all of this because, like,
this is his life on the line, and to the
two attorneys his dad and Bell are just complete and
utter and are using their relationship, their relationship is interfering
with the trial that could send him to jail or worse,

(09:09):
and so like, I just feel bad for him because
he's like stuck, He's like I I, and he can't
do anything about it.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (09:19):
I had a completely different take than what like I
felt like the show was trying to tell us. I
feel like the show was like, EJ crossed a line
and I was like, well, Bell brought up the rape,
Like what you talking like, It's like, yeah, of all
things to be sort of disgraced about or like. And
I understand she brought it up. It was in context

(09:39):
of the trial, and again a a another lawyer would
have brought that up to show how, you know, how
angry Johnny could have been. But I was like, in
terms of scope, like what she brought up versus what
he brought up, I was like, it's not even a contest.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yeah, I do feel like that point was missed kind
of a little bit because we've talked a lot, you know,
when the storyline was brought back up again of the rape,
we talked a lot about how who knew what and
where and how it was a secret and was not.
We kind of had to go through like who knew what,
when and it was It's it's important to note that

(10:22):
none of that compares to it actually being in a
public record, because that's what a courtroom is. There is
a person sitting on the side taking notes and making
it public record.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Here's my thing. I just feel like there's a lot
of wrong with this whole thing. The fact that EJ
is representing Johnny, who is also the person in question
that the trial is about. That Belle is Johnny's aunt

(11:07):
who's also the DA, who also someone approved for her
to still prosecute this case even though she has so
many personal ties to it, Leo being one of the
jurors who has ties and connections to them as well.

(11:27):
And I feel like they're trying to explain everything, but
there's still a part of me that's like, but does
it truly make it? Because if I was the judge,
I would have been like, so you mean to tell me,
let me break this down. You two are dating, You
are the father, you are the aunt. How are y'all

(11:52):
about to do this case? I'm confused.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
There's the family part of it, that they're both he's
the dad, she's the aunt, and that they're fucking behind
the scenes.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Like Michael Madness. They are not They are not doing that, sir.
They are making love. Yes, this is daytime.

Speaker 3 (12:20):
I'm sorry. I'm sorry withj No EJ and Bell they
can say that, oh I have feeling blah blah blah. No,
they're I'm sorry, Like it's such. I can't. I have
never been able to fully just to sum this up,
I've never been able to fully get on board that

(12:41):
their feelings for each other are love are it's lust? Okay,
it's lust that they are trying to force to be loved.
I guess if that makes sense, They're trying to justify it.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
I think there is a strong like and attraction between
Bell and e J. I think there's something you know,
dangerous about EJ that attracts Bell because I feel like
Belle likes a little danger. You know, Philip when he
was in the military, you know, Sean, Sean Douglas, you
know when they were when they started dating, had a

(13:14):
bit of edge to him, you know what I mean.
So I feel like she likes that little bit of danger.

Speaker 3 (13:19):
I'm sure she also likes that, you know, it's sam
it was Sammy's man. I'm sure the you know, sibling
rivalry is coming into play, and that her mom doesn't
approve obviously, like even though Belle's in her forties and
the grown ass woman and can do whatever she wants, like,
I do think there's a little bit of the danger, agreed,

(13:40):
but also not danger. What am I trying to say,
like forbidden. It's forbidden for many reasons, and that's what
that's what's attracting her to him. He's probably attracted to
her for legit reasons. But is it love? Like I
I've always, you know, always been a little bit on

(14:02):
the fence on them. But like and then she just
keeps He'll he'll do something. They're in this pattern. Now
he does something shitty. She I'm never talking to about.
Two days later, she's like, let's go upstairs or here's
my hotel key, like come back in.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
You know, Well, they had they had a discussion before
they did it that like this this was their safe space,
like you know, it's not about the trial or anything
like that, like we we're gonna What I essentially got
out of it was like they're going to take their
feelings out of it. Right. Then they do it. They

(14:40):
get back suited, they go back to court, and then EJ.
Goes left and Bell is like, no.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
I know.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
Now, I will say Bell did kind of get in
terms of like their tit tit for tat whatever. Belle
did kind of start it a little bit, but she
did it because that dude was in the courtroom and
she had to kind of she kind of had to

(15:08):
do that for his benefit. Whether EJ was aware of that,
I don't think EJ was fully aware of that aspect
of it.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
Here's the thing, Bell was actually doing what a DA
and a lawyer is supposed to do by bringing things
that paint a picture of where his head was at
in the night of question. When EJ stood up and said,
what's my relationship with her? For? Why? What's my relationship

(15:42):
with you? It's like there are things that don't need
to be brought up, and he has to. I feel
like they forgot that he too, is a lawyer, because
I feel like as a lawyer, you anticipate what someone
is going to do. Correct So knowing knowing that information,

(16:07):
knowing that you know Johnny was very upset with him
about what he did to Sammy, which led to him
coming over there with a gun, you had to think
at some point she was probably going to bring it up. Why,
because she's the prosecutor and the attorney and the GA
and so she has to do her job.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Question, Madie, do we think she was planning on bringing
that up?

Speaker 5 (16:34):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (16:35):
If that dude and I can't remember who he was
or why he was there.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
He's like the state Attorney general.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
A representative from the Attorney General's.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
Office think basically her boss okay, got it.

Speaker 3 (16:48):
If he hadn't been there, do we think Belle would
have gone so hard into the details of you know,
or do you think she might have just stuck to oh,
she was mad, you were mad at your dad because
he messed up the adoption. Do we think she would
have brought up or gone so hard into the other stuff?

Speaker 1 (17:11):
First off, the way you just brought that up made
me think of so you were washing your hair while
you were in the shower and you didn't hear the
gunshot because you were in the shower, but you had
just gotten washing your hair. I will say this, I

(17:37):
think that hearing from the mayor that she heard from
the State Attorney General's office that you better prosecute this
the way that you're supposed to or you're going to
lose your job, which I was confused. What I was
confused about was why wasn't the phone call get somebody
else to do it? Because there's no way that she

(17:59):
can fully do her job when she's so closely related
to the people. But it's like, do your job or
get fired. From it.

Speaker 5 (18:11):
Yeah, I do, Michael. I think it was definitely she
upped the ante by having that guy there and her
job was on the line. I also think that maybe
maybe in EJ's mind, if he thought she was gonna
pull that out, maybe she'd be a little bit more
discreet about it, like, oh, you're mad at your dad
because of history with your mom or a tumultuous relationship.

(18:32):
I felt like that's where she If EJ thought she
would go there, maybe out of just sheer respect, she
wouldn't last the whole story in the context of it.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Yeah, she was doing her job totally. She was doing
her job. I think she probably would have done it
even if the State Attorney General's office hadn't called, because
I think Bell Bell doesn't want to see John go
to jail for something that he didn't do. But at

(19:04):
the same time, she's caught in a rock and heart
place because her reputation as DA as a lawyer and
everything is on the line, because if she half did this,
if she didn't like pursue this like it was Joe
blow from the street, it would come back to her

(19:24):
and I think there would be a lot of questions
as to like, well why didn't you say this? Why
didn't you bring this up? You know what I mean? Like,
you're supposed to be this great attorney, which is why
you have this great position, and yet you slacked in this.
Why because that's your nephew. Like, I think she was
doing what she would do even if Johnny wasn't her nephew.

(19:44):
And it hurts her to do that because when she
sat down, she was like, but I had to because
she had to establish how someone could be so angry
to come to your house with a gun, like this
isn't like you know, he took your PlayStation two away

(20:09):
or PlayStation five, Like that's not that.

Speaker 5 (20:14):
So she like, but I think part of it is
interesting because we know that she actually doesn't believe he
did it. So part of it, too, is like how
performative is this? Though?

Speaker 1 (20:26):
Do you know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (20:26):
I think it'd be different if we the audience thought
bell Bell questioned Johnny, do you know what I mean?
If she questioned whether he did it? I think that
would be a different story. But she has flat out
said I know you didn't do it. I believe you
didn't do it, But this is my job. So it's
like I don't know, like to me, that like that
is a weird conflict of interest in and of itself

(20:47):
outside of the fact that they're related. Plus also, I mean,
if we're gonna go tip for tat, they both told
the truth. I think Bell's was more relevant to the case,
but EJ also told the truth. It may have been
out of the bounds of the case, but he wasn't lying.

Speaker 1 (21:03):
No, But that was that was a that was a
tit for for Ted that.

Speaker 3 (21:10):
Oh yeah, no he did with always and he was like, Okay,
you did that, Well, fuck you, here's what I'm gonna do.

Speaker 5 (21:17):
But I don't think that was his plan to bring
up into the rate. I think it was exactly and.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
It all could have been. It all could have been
avoided if someone had gotten to EJ and told him like, Hey,
this dude's gonna be in the courtroom. I have to
go a little bit.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
But he didn't. But here's the thing. She didn't have
to explain that to him because he's a lawyer too,
So of course what she was doing was establishing why
Johnny was so angry to do what he did. So
with that knowledge, it's like, you don't you don't need

(21:55):
to do a tip for Taed. You don't need to
do anything like you just Pauline to tried to tell him,
he ran out, Oh yeah he didn't. He he couldn't
be bothered with Paulina at all. But it's like it's
like keep your head in the game. As a lawyer,
he became EJ Damara when he when he did that,
and as a lawyer, what he should have done was

(22:17):
when he when Bell brought up the rape and everything
like that. Then when you read cross examine him, you know,
did you ever speak to your mother about about what happened?
And how did you you know? What was it? Like,
it's a way to diffuse it. So that way, you know,

(22:38):
it shows that Sammy got over it. He was just
finding out about it, so he felt some kind of
way about it. Someone eventually like calmed him down about it.
So then that's now your defense. I mean, I don't know,
I'm not a lawyer. I've only just watched legally blind,
so but I'm but but he but he didn't have

(23:00):
to be like, what's my relationship with the prosecutor? And
her face was like at this get.

Speaker 3 (23:09):
At this point, can't Johnny say something? Can't he go
to the judge and be like, these two lawyers are.

Speaker 5 (23:16):
I don't believe.

Speaker 3 (23:17):
I don't believe that I am getting proper justice here.
I don't believe I'm getting a proper trial here, Like
can't he but he's just kind of like taking the
punches and leaving and like Charlie Browning out of court,
you know, and and you know that's what I would
be paid. Like that's why I'm saying, like I feel
bad for Johnny. His freedom. Maybe his life's not on

(23:41):
the line, but his freedom's on the line. I think
it's found guilty because these two can't get their act together.
And are you know, I think honestly, I was surprised.
We'll not surprised, but I was like, if if all
of if everything was in place that we've been talking about,
all the conflicts of interest and this was a real
life case and these two specific people were trying the case,

(24:06):
and EJ's objection or EJ's motion for a mistrial, I
feel like it would have been granted. And this judge
was like Nope, overalled, and I'm like this thing is
a mess, Like I did.

Speaker 5 (24:21):
Yeah, And also we never really got the explanation as
to why the judge put Bell on the case because
member she recused herself originally Waite never got off. And
then that's why I thought that it was like going
to be like some shot of mystery around that, or
like we were going to find out EJ paid off
the judge or.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
Something like that.

Speaker 5 (24:40):
But it like it sort of went nowhere. So what
did EJ tell you the judge to convince you to
put Bell on because you seem shocked by the fact
that they're dating. I don't know, there's something it's not
connecting for me.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
There's a lot of misconnecttions here, not as much as
I'm trying to go with it.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
Yeah, it's something is just makes sense as I'm over
here looking up. Can a prosecutor take a case knowing
the defendant literally literally have that pulled up to see
if there was anything?

Speaker 2 (25:10):
Oh, that happens all the time.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
Yeah, but it just seems I don't know, It just
I don't know. And and maybe it's to drive story.
You know, it causes you know, it causes conflict between
Bell and e J. And now with EJ wanting to like,
you know, really be you know, what's the word I'm

(25:34):
looking for? He really wants to go in on the
case and be ruthless.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
You know.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Johnny's like, I don't, I don't know about that, and
you know, it's like.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
It's a hot mess. And here's where I think they're
losing us as the annience. At least, this is where
they've lost me. That it's just we've had we're now
have the exact same information we had two months ago.

(26:07):
There has been absolutely no forward momentum. There's been no discovery,
and I think that's where you lose people when you
go into a trial like this on a soap, is
that you have to keep you have to keep discovery going.
And there's been nothing like my my who done shot EJ? Yeah? Sorry?

(26:33):
My who done shot EJ? Chart should have like three
other suspects at this point and nothing.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
We as the viewers by now, should know who shot EJ.
The rest of this played out should be us watching
it play out and the killer being discovered by everybody else.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
We should at least know.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
Or at least beginning, Yeah do, but you know, I
need to see the whole picture. Just give me a
few puzzle pieces.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
I want the whole thing.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
I don't know, it's just.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
What a mess, and then there hasn't been any like
that video of Chanel.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
Oh yeah, but.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
Where's where's that?

Speaker 2 (27:24):
And all this, Like I think it's coming.

Speaker 3 (27:28):
Okay, they pretty much completely dropped it.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
No, I think it's I think it's coming. We still
have some Yeah, we know, because there's more of the
trial coming up next week. So I think that I
think that we have yet to go through it. But
the problem is is like we as an audience don't
need to rehash this.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
I mean, it's it feels like one of those things
where it's like, do y'all know who?

Speaker 2 (27:56):
Did you know when you were and this was going
on always yeah, we're gonna yes, Well we'll end up
asking that question of Dan later on do you know who?
And yeah, at this point, I'm not sure I care.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
Oh not, you're not caring.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
I still care. I'm just frustrated that I don't know yet.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
I think I think this is what's frustrating about it
is that we know it wasn't Johnny, but there's no
other suspect. Yeah, like there's no there's no one that
we can be like, well, like like someone said earlier,
us knowing who it is and being like, okay, how
are they gonna get there?

Speaker 5 (28:40):
And also they all know, they all have the same
information we have, and they're all like unanimous. Everyone who
comes into contact with the story is like Johnny's innocent,
and it's like, why are we here?

Speaker 4 (28:51):
Then?

Speaker 5 (28:51):
I think that you know what I mean, Like, I
don't know. I need some division, I need more proof,
I need something. I feel like, yeah, well now that
I guess we can talk about the witnesses like, it's
Gabby the only person on the fence in the home
town who look either doesn't care if it's Johnny or not.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Well, get who's who's been a witness. Gabby's been a witness,
Chad has been a witness, Roman Roman, They're all on
Johnny's side. Gabby is the only one who's like, I
don't care whether he did it or not. I'm just
gonna tell you what I saw. M m mmmm mm hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Speaker 5 (29:31):
What do you think of Susan in her in this capacity?
I know she comes up later on.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
Too, but can we talk about And I don't know.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
I I think I think they're trying. They're trying to
make us believe something, and I don't know whether I
buy it yet or not.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
I will say that. Oh, y'all know this already, because
we did our guesses and somebody was so mad. They
were like, how come they don't tell us their guesses?
And I'm like, well, I'm thinking to myself, we don't
say them because if we're right, or one of us

(30:17):
is right, y'all are gonna think.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
We knew it.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
Y'all know stuff. We don't know.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
They we're get in trouble.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
We don't know nothing at all.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
We're all And besides, we were all over the place anyways.

Speaker 3 (30:29):
Yeah, no, I don't even remember what my natial guest was.

Speaker 1 (30:32):
I remember.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
We thought, we thought we will all be in consensus,
and we were all over the place, all over.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
But I will say I think the way that they're headed,
that was my guess.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Oh wait, I remember what my initial guess was.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
Oh no, I think I deleted it. I'm mad I
put it. There's a whole further that said who shot
EJ guesses? And I thought I screenshot it, but I
must have deleted the screenshot. Well, all right, well what

(31:10):
are we doing?

Speaker 3 (31:11):
I don't know anyway?

Speaker 1 (31:14):
All right, Well, I mean the trial is gonna keep
going on, all right? Should we move on. Yes, all right, Oh,
shout out to uh Carson Bowman Johnny for his lovely
Susan impression. I wish you could just get on the

(31:35):
stand and be like, he just there. He didn't do
it because I have a premonition. I don't see how
anyone kept a straight face during that.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
I wonder how Raven's laughter was probably real.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
Yeah, and EJ trying to do a sports metaphor and
I'm just like, just.

Speaker 3 (31:57):
Stop, no, I think he had lived that. What did
he say, like the very last comment he made to
slug Yeah, yeah, I'm like, oh, that was that was.

Speaker 6 (32:11):
Dan.

Speaker 1 (32:13):
That was Dan?

Speaker 2 (32:14):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
All right, well let's move on, shall we. What's your point?
We're talking about Kat and Chad and Julie and Marlena.

Speaker 3 (32:29):
Okay, they spent the entire night an elevator and didn't do.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
Anything until she became sick and delirious. And then, first
of all, don't kiss me when you're sick. Yeah, you
got the heaps the second her her hands went, I
would have said.

Speaker 5 (32:58):
Not now, yeah, get suppressed.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
You are sick, you germs.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
It is the clastic soap opera mechanism for two people
when they are trapped somewhere. They do stuff, whether it's.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
They do stuff is a confession, something happens.

Speaker 3 (33:18):
Something happened. They just slept the whole night.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
It just further.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
I didn't think there was I didn't think there was
any wind left in the sales of Kat and Chad
to be let out. Yet they managed to. And then
to Tony's point, when she gets sick with throat herb
or whatever, that's when they throw strap throat still, That's

(33:44):
that's when they decide to, you know, get freaky, you
know what.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
You know what. The best thing about the storyline was
Julie and Marlena. Yeah, Marlena the the funniest part. There
were a couple of funnies. Yeah, Chad, Chack. Can you
hear me, Julie, I can hear you. And then she

(34:10):
hears Kat and she's just like that, Julie faith you
keep your hands off.

Speaker 4 (34:21):
It was.

Speaker 2 (34:22):
It was both hilarious and then poignant, and then back
to hilarious and then back to old lady mind your business.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
But then the real, the real calcul was Marlena, Hey, Julie.

Speaker 3 (34:35):
Uh, let's let's go grab some coffee chat.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
I'm good. I had my coffee before I left the house,
and Marlene looked at her like it was really the
nice way of.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
Didrid like the looks she was getting Julie just like
the the this is my friend but she's acting.

Speaker 5 (35:05):
A fool that look.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
It's like, I'm sorry for my friend.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
Perfect, Yeah, exactly. And the frustration when Julie, like when
she was like would double down on something and like
she wanted to slap her, but you know, this is
my friend and I can't.

Speaker 5 (35:22):
I have to be Yes.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
Yeah, Hat handled that very tactfully, I think.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
Because he knows that Julie ultimately cares. But at the
same time, it's like, give cat a break, yes, like
leave her alone.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
I'm a grown man. Mind your business, Leave cat alone.

Speaker 3 (35:43):
We need the brittany guy leave pat alone.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
Well why don't Why don't the brittany guy be the
skydive instructor, elevator, a fixer. You know what? This This
is what I proposed. I propose he becomes the random
character in Salo that pops up for any and everything.
He is like, have him come in at the bistro, Hello,

(36:07):
can I take your order?

Speaker 3 (36:09):
Dog's replacement at the pub?

Speaker 1 (36:13):
Let him Let him also be the the realator who
sells whoever the bookstore. I mean, just like just let
him be this renaissance man that literally does everything and
nothing in Salo.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
Look, I mean that's the way of the world these days, gigwork.

Speaker 5 (36:34):
So yeah, it's just true.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
And then and then in one episode like asking him
like why do you have all these jobs? And then
it's something like I have an obsession with laboo boos.

Speaker 5 (36:49):
Is too damn high. That's why.

Speaker 3 (36:52):
An apartment apparently, Oh that's right there. Everyone was having
trouble find an environment I forgot about that.

Speaker 5 (37:02):
Is not right controlled.

Speaker 3 (37:05):
Jez well, like.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
I these are look when when you find all of
those lovely soap compilations videos on YouTube, these are like
the moments that they're made of. These are what like
flashback moments are made of. And yes, it's come like
six months way too late, like we should have been
way farther on this with Cat and Chad. But at

(37:29):
this point I will take what I can get.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
I just can't.

Speaker 5 (37:36):
I just can't.

Speaker 3 (37:36):
It's not gonna lead. I just don't have faith it's
gonna lead to anything. Right, We're gonna get this is
gonna be like, oh I kiss you because I was
de Lulu and because I was sick in to Lulu,
and then we're gonna go back to the way they
were before.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
I we don't know about that. I think we're gonna, unfortunately,
go very slowly through this way, slower than any of
us would want. But I do think Chad has passed
the point in thinking of Kat as just a friend.

Speaker 5 (38:09):
After this week.

Speaker 2 (38:10):
I think he's I think he's getting past that point.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
I'll tell you when this is gonna happen. You want
to know when.

Speaker 3 (38:19):
April twenty twenty six.

Speaker 1 (38:24):
Exactly. That's when. That's when Kat and Chad are finally
going to be together. In April twenty twenty six.

Speaker 5 (38:30):
Oh god, and so weird because they're setting up this.
Of course, the drama of her side plot is that
she's investigating the family, but it like it's not hitting
because they're not really together and there's no passion. Also,
like he again a byproduct of always having him with
the with the whore ends, he's now a whore end

(38:54):
who Julie can dictate who he dates, you know what
I mean. It's like, this is why she feels she
could scare off any potential people because you you know,
the kids are in the house and you rely on her,
and you know you're a whort and now you're not
a demi and it's it's none of it's coming together
like you should agreed. Yeah, I'm much more interested in

(39:19):
Cat in a reef, not necessarily romantically, but I'm interested
in their just partnership working.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
That's an interesting part of the scenario here. Yeah, they're
going so slow with that though, Like it's I, yeah,
we need some we need like some more spice momentum.

Speaker 1 (39:39):
Yeah. Well it also just came out of nowhere because
who would have thought that Kate cat Cat was a
part of that.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
And that's that, in my and in my opinion, is
a good a good twist and a good way to
keep Cat in the fold and not just attached to
to Chad and and I just I just need a
little more momentum with it. I can see the possibilities
of this this you know that part of the storyline.

(40:10):
I just a little more momentum.

Speaker 1 (40:13):
Do you think this would have worked better if it
said of like the faking to be Abigail, that like
it was like a plot to have to do with
like a mission she was doing for the is a
like if the I s A part was was mentioned,
like first.

Speaker 3 (40:32):
Off, how it would be different if her her reasoning
for Abigail was because she was an is a mission,
not because of what's her mom Hmmm.

Speaker 2 (40:47):
I think it still might go that way because I
previously mentioned that in order for Cat to have ever
been interacted with Clyde when she when she mentioned in
her talk with Shane that the ISA paid for her
reconstruction and her recovery after her accident, that there's no

(41:09):
way that Shane didn't know what was going on. So
I still think there's potential for that point to be
picked up again because there's no way that there's no
way that he was unaware of what was going on.

Speaker 1 (41:26):
Okay, but but no.

Speaker 3 (41:29):
One else knows that. So like, for instance, if Julie
knew that, would she be would she would she be
a little more forgiving towards Kat.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
I don't think so, because that's not Julie's nature. I
think if anything, she would be more. Yes, I think
she'd just be mad at Shane. Yes, I think her. Yes,
her Right now, her rage is very isolated and it's
very focused on Cat and only Cat. It has not
spread I think once the truth about cats involvun with

(42:02):
the Ia comes up, then I think that that, you know,
there's room for that race to just explode all over.

Speaker 5 (42:09):
I still think it could have. We could have benefited
from Cat and Chad taking a break after she was
found out. I felt like it's been NonStop with them,
Like even after he found out what he was pissed
off at her for a couple of weeks, and even
then he was running into Like I felt like there
could have been some separation there and then have them
come back and sort of him forgive her and then

(42:31):
work towards a friendship. Maybe that might have helped with
their like kind of lack of chemistry.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (42:37):
I'm just interested more in Cat's story. Also, we have
the stuff with Sammy that got brought up a few
weeks ago that oh yeah, see, like you know what
I mean, It's like the stuff with Chad just isn't
it pales in comparison to the other stuff to do.
I don't know, I don't know if it's my age.

Speaker 3 (42:52):
I'm just I'm forgetting those little blips that we get,
like those little blitz and I didn't used to be
like that. I used to remember.

Speaker 5 (43:00):
Stuff like that, and now it's like they're they're like
sparsing stuff a little bit more then, yes, you know
what I mean. Like I feel like for now we
would have had Cat mentioned something or it would have
been alluded to again, but it literally was a five
second little thing. What a month and a half ago

(43:20):
to maybe you.

Speaker 1 (43:22):
Know, mm hmm, or maybe we're not We're just we're
just not paying.

Speaker 2 (43:30):
Look, I'm just so starved for couples with natural chemistry
because too often we see characters who are just thrown together,
and I'm so starved for like, Okay, you did the
chemistry test. These two have chemistry. Let's work with it now.

(43:52):
Granted I've gotten crumbs for my loyalty in the respect,
but I'm so starved at this point I'll take what
I can.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
Yeah, m hmm.

Speaker 2 (44:02):
Do you know how long I have to wait for
season for Bridger? Ten?

Speaker 1 (44:07):
Mm hmmm.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
We are reaching desperation here, h.

Speaker 1 (44:15):
Okay, all right, m well, we're gonna pray for you,
all right, just kidding. And then Felicity, you know, was

(44:35):
obviously helping out trying to figure out where Kat was.
She was like, she can come home last night. I
was like, yes, Kennedy, you better act, honey, let them know.
All right, let's move on corporate spies. Spies.

Speaker 3 (44:58):
I think I might need a little chart here. Okay, okay,
there's a lot of Okay, so Demira titaned Demira. Yes,
is being investigated, being investigated. Okay, so bye, Steve, bye,
Steve on behalf of Gabby, who's working on behalf of Tony?

Speaker 1 (45:21):
Yeah? Do I have that right? Yes?

Speaker 2 (45:26):
That is correct.

Speaker 3 (45:28):
I had a moment this week where I was like, wait,
who's doing what? And Gabby is subtly like putting the
moves ish, doing the most standard in the interest of
in the interest of investigating Titan de Mira, not because
she's really randy for him.

Speaker 5 (45:47):
Yeah, exactly, Yes, Yeah, Okay, that's the.

Speaker 3 (45:53):
Whole Now, that's it.

Speaker 2 (45:56):
Yes, now on there, now on now on the corporate
sea side of things. That all makes a lot of sense.
And I'm kind of here for although Gabby needs to
just kind of walk a very tight rope because she
could stand to be a litt subtler, just a little
till bit a little subtler.

Speaker 3 (46:17):
Although she can buy me a bottle of wine any day.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
Yes, I think anybody will think about a line. But
it's so that's all good, and that's that's actually moving that,
which is great, and Tony's getting that that Tony is
getting into some Sheenanigan's great. Love it this again the
repeat of the Xander and Sarah stuff and now third parties.

(46:42):
I'm like, no, no, I don't need to see it.

Speaker 3 (46:47):
It's almost like there's in terms of investigating tightened mirror,
there's too many cooks in the kitchen. Now there's too
many cooks in the kitchen. And then Steve, as part
of his investigation, requests a foya, which is relayed back
to Xander. So I'm like, okay, you're investigating this company,

(47:07):
yet you took a step that you knew he would
find out about.

Speaker 5 (47:12):
Well he's using a big name, yes, but.

Speaker 3 (47:17):
Still now now Xander, how Xander knows someone's investigating him.
He wants Alex to find out. Alex goes to Steve.
Steve can't help him because he's working for Gabby, who's
working for Tony. I'm like, this is this get a
little bit, get a little too messy a little bit.

Speaker 2 (47:35):
I'm actually okay with that. I'm here for it, and
I think it was well and I thought for a
second that Steve was going to actually give himself up
to Alex. I'm glad he didn't take it in that direction. Yeah.
Can we talk me about that conversation though, between Steve
and Alex for a second, because that was hilarious.

Speaker 3 (48:01):
Okay, nobody liked it.

Speaker 5 (48:05):
I thought it was silly. This is why I didn't
like it was he robbed a bank and held up
point like me, come on, this is and also like
wouldn't Justin have told that to Steve? He made it
a point to be ived to Justin and me. It
was stupid. You know, well, it's like what are we doing?

Speaker 2 (48:25):
That's that's not that's not a story that a dad
wants to be retelling.

Speaker 5 (48:30):
I think if youre Alex, is your kid, who just
tell Steve that considering it would be like a fraternity something.

Speaker 3 (48:36):
Like, you know, once you get to a certain age,
parent love to tell those kids if nothing catastrophic happened
as a result, and it was just like an innocent,
like stupid college indiscretion, which is what it was. I
am sure at gatherings or whatnot after some you know, alcohol,

(48:59):
I'm sure just would be like you want to know
what this son of a bitch did when he was
in college.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
Kid.

Speaker 2 (49:03):
That's more like fraternity brothers will brag about though. Like
I could imagine like some of his fraternity brothers coming
back and telling Stephanie that story and her just laughing
her ass off about it. But you know what, this,
I will say, this is probably one of the first
times and the entire Alex and Stephanie saga that I

(49:25):
found myself in Deared Alex. It doesn't happen often. I
will say, like, it's not that I'm it's not that
I'm against this couple. It's that I've never seen the chemistry.
I've never really it's never been.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
Off the charts for me between Stephanie and Yeah, it's.

Speaker 2 (49:45):
I've never it's it's never hit well with me. I've
never looked at Alex as like the good, like the
like Stephanie's one true love, great boyfriend, whatever. It's never
just never hit with me. This conversation between Alex and
Steve that hit that hit me.

Speaker 3 (50:02):
Do you think it humanized him a little bit? In
your eyes?

Speaker 1 (50:05):
Humanized?

Speaker 2 (50:07):
It's not that I it's not that I didn't think
he was humanized before. I just have I just never
saw the great potential for a great love story between them.
But when he was one hundred up front with her
dad and said that she is his favorite person, that

(50:28):
right there, that was like, that's exactly what a parent
wants to hear from.

Speaker 3 (50:35):
You believe it was genuine, It wasn't just lip service
to Yeah.

Speaker 2 (50:38):
Yeah, I I one hundred percent believed it. I was
at that point, I'm.

Speaker 3 (50:43):
In okay and that Thompson.

Speaker 2 (50:48):
I mean, she's not wrong, she's basically yeah. That's that
was That's that's where my mind was from the dark
behind Yeah, and then you say bye bye.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
But I think I think the I think the appeal
of Alex and Stephanie goes back to when they first
met this playboy who it was something about her made
him slow down. Mm hmm, Because I think ultimately that's
that's well, that's what happened. But also, you know, we

(51:24):
all want the hot hot guy to find to look
at us and go, there's something special about you. You're
the one, You're the one. Some of some people are
with hot hot guys and they're still trying to be
the one, but you're actually the fourth. So I think
that's that's what that's that's the appeal. You know, alex

(51:49):
Is so you know, tall and muscular, works in business.
You know, he's clearly that song I'm looking for a
man in finance, and it's him and so for And
then you look at Stephanie, who's very ambitious and stuff
and who has her stuff together, who initially looked at

(52:13):
him like.

Speaker 3 (52:15):
I'll need you.

Speaker 2 (52:17):
Yeah, And I think that's why it's like it's only
now hitting me because now now their their ambitions are aligned,
you know, because he's he's helping her reach her full
potential in a creative passion that she loves, you know.

(52:38):
She she sees him and supports him in his in
his business and the whole shenanigans that he's had to
deal with with Philip and Xander the past few months.
So it's now now I'm seeing a really supportive and
healthy relationship where I just I didn't see the potential
for long lasting before. So thank you for making me

(53:02):
a believer.

Speaker 1 (53:04):
Now I'm a believer.

Speaker 5 (53:06):
You're talking about Tony and what I love that you
never question anyone else. Confused. I feel like there was
something left out or like maybe like some plot that
was Remember when Tony said to Anna, I recruited Gabby.
There was something weird where Anna was like, oh, she
didn't tell me, or did you guys catch pick that up?

(53:30):
It was yeah, there was a couple of things. Yeah, Yeah,
there was a couple.

Speaker 3 (53:36):
Of things in that conversation where I feel like we
were missing something or maybe something was on camera that
we didn't see.

Speaker 5 (53:43):
Yeah, because it was like they made a big deal
to say that Gabby didn't tell Anna about it, and
I was like, why would Gabby tell you?

Speaker 1 (53:49):
Know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (53:49):
It was like, yeah, I felt like there was maybe
a plot where Anna works for Gabby, maybe a Gabby
she because then Tony was going in with a she
can she can do your line, which I thought was
nice because they brought that back because Anna has in it.
Actually before Gaby Sheik was the design person of the show,
so I like that they connected those two. But I

(54:10):
felt like there was a some plot missing where I
was like, wait, does.

Speaker 6 (54:12):
Anna work for Gaby chic now were they trying to
reference I'm trying to remember if there was a time
when Gabby was living in the mansion, if she and
Anna kind of had a.

Speaker 3 (54:25):
Yeah, not like a like a friendship. I guess like
maybe in passing, maybe it wasn't long lasting, or maybe
it wasn't but I'm trying to remember because there was
that period of time where Gabby was living there, and
I feel like Gabby was living there and Tony and
Anna were there. Okay, it was when it was when
the Demira set was like that library room. I can't

(54:46):
only that's what I remember about it. It was that
one library room mansion.

Speaker 2 (54:52):
That they're trying to establish that Anna as like the
pseudo matriarch of the family has has kept in close
contact with the other women who have married into the family,
because remember she had a very she had a very
close relationship with Nicole when she was married to AJ

(55:16):
and she did have interactions with Gabby. So I think
that's what they're trying to establish that Anna made it
a point to support and keep up with these women.

Speaker 5 (55:26):
Yeah, it was just a little clunky when they said that.
It was like she didn't tell me, and it was
like she didn't tell you. It was like, wait, why
would she randomly tell Anna about it? I don't know.
I felt like they could have done there was like
a scene maybe cut before where they maybe established it
in in Gabby still talk or like, yeah, that could
have been Anna for design and for you know, design

(55:46):
mentorship or something. I thought, oh, that would be a cute,
you know, cute way of tying these two together.

Speaker 1 (55:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (55:53):
I just I was like, wait, did I miss something
here that we don't know about?

Speaker 2 (55:59):
Yes, but Tony's love for Anna can never be doubted.

Speaker 5 (56:03):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (56:04):
Who I'm just kidding.

Speaker 5 (56:13):
Yeah, don't care about the rest.

Speaker 2 (56:15):
Just nonsense nonsense. Oh now steps back, yeah, nonsense?

Speaker 1 (56:29):
Is it nonsense?

Speaker 2 (56:30):
It's nonsense.

Speaker 1 (56:32):
I just feel like at this point it's intriguing to
see Xander with other people.

Speaker 3 (56:43):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
I'm intrigued by him and Gwen. I'm intrigued by him
and Gabby, but then I'm not intrigued by the interactions
that him and Sarah have.

Speaker 3 (56:56):
These again, it's a these tit for tat situations with
him and Sarah just keep it back and forth.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
Back and forth, what is wrong?

Speaker 3 (57:06):
Back and forth, and it's like like.

Speaker 1 (57:11):
You're you're you're drunk and being like I want to
see my baby now, mhm, sir girl.

Speaker 3 (57:21):
And then I'm like, damn it, don't give her ammo,
like you know what, And then she's like well, I
can kiss someone too, so then she kisses. I'm like,
you all are just doing the the worst.

Speaker 2 (57:34):
Yeah. Yeah. And as far as Brady and Sarah go,
no and no and no.

Speaker 1 (57:43):
Why was there a moment where when I saw Sarah
and Brady together? No, forgive me for this. I thought, Man,
when was the last time Brady might have had some Yeah,
think about it, huh.

Speaker 5 (58:01):
I thought you were going to say brother and sister vibes.

Speaker 1 (58:06):
Like they were. They were sitting there together, and I
was like, oh, we haven't seen Brady with like anyone
else except fighting with Kristen. Oh no, there was Ava
the last person. Yeah, font.

Speaker 5 (58:22):
Yeah, he never slept with Eva. But but Fiona was
a while ago. Yeah, it was almost a year.

Speaker 1 (58:31):
Yeah, goodness. And I mean, yes, life has been like him.
But at the same time, it's like Brady.

Speaker 5 (58:36):
That's interesting for Brad. He never does he ever go
this long without.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
I mean, we all agreed at one point time, you
should necessary.

Speaker 2 (58:45):
I think it's necessary.

Speaker 1 (58:46):
Do you think it's necessary?

Speaker 2 (58:48):
Yes, because that stop putting him with the wrong woman.

Speaker 3 (58:54):
You what to give the libido a little reset, keep
him single longer.

Speaker 5 (58:59):
Actually, I mean.

Speaker 2 (59:00):
Yes, because we have proven that Brady Black does not
do good in relationships.

Speaker 3 (59:06):
It's not the greatest, no, not the bestest.

Speaker 2 (59:10):
I'll call him like I seen Hi. He's a big
old dummy.

Speaker 1 (59:15):
It's just.

Speaker 3 (59:17):
Like bringing him into the Xander and Sarah mass No, no, no.

Speaker 2 (59:24):
No, And please don't give him a relationship with someone
who is his friend. The whole friend to lover's thing
does not work with these people. It doesn't work with
a character like Brady. You know how I know that
because you tried it with Melanie and that was it.

(59:46):
That's a whole chapter I would like to erase. And
and I'm grateful every day that Teresa came along and
just erased.

Speaker 1 (59:55):
There's no mind. Wait it does it come up later?
I say what I'm grateful for. No, never mind?

Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
Oh I know, where are you gonna?

Speaker 3 (01:00:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
You don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:00:16):
I think I thought it.

Speaker 1 (01:00:17):
What did you think it was? Since she got your degree?

Speaker 5 (01:00:21):
And you know, is it?

Speaker 2 (01:00:23):
Is it something that we're going to talk about later?

Speaker 1 (01:00:27):
Uh, there is something later that relates to what I
was gonna say. Yeah, oh yeah, memory, she kind of
she thought she she thought she was somewhere and then
realized nowhere. I don't know. I think I think I'm
just I think it saddens me to see what they've
done with Xander and Sarah and that everything is like

(01:00:47):
an argument, even though like, uh, this week he was
picturing them making love and I was like, oh, not
him having one of them dreams.

Speaker 3 (01:01:00):
Having the feelings.

Speaker 1 (01:01:02):
So I don't know, it's just it's it's it's it's
very interesting what what they have done with that couple
over that one secret m Yeah, that I think could
have easily been handled better. But that's just that's just
that's just my opinion. All right, Well, we gonna just

(01:01:26):

(01:02:29):
into some tidbits. We're gonna discuss grief, guilt and gloom.
We're talking Sammy, Susan. Can I ask you guys a
question and maybe hopefully we give our honest thoughts and opinions.

(01:02:51):
What did we think about Monday's episode with Sammy and Marlena.

Speaker 5 (01:02:59):
I thought it was well acted.

Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 5 (01:03:03):
I think we were watching Alison say goodbye to Drake
as opposed to Sammy say goodbye to John. I think
they were sort of skewing the history a bit to
sort of get to have her say the things that
she said and to bring her to that point. It
was a well acted scene between those two.

Speaker 1 (01:03:24):
So I liked it for that. But yeah, and I
love seeing Alison Sweeny. You would, I said, I love
seeing Alison's Yeah, Michael Matters, you were okay with it
with it.

Speaker 2 (01:03:40):
Yeah, I agree with all of Justin's points, and I
would say that I it's unfortunate that the timing of
everything because I think that the I think squeezing Alice

(01:04:00):
in didn't necessarily work to work for the overall story.
And I understand. And let's and let's establish right now
for our audience who were like, why isn't Sammy here
is like she like, let's be very clear, Alison Sweeney
was one hundred percent in on the John Black Memorial,

(01:04:24):
on the tribute to Drake hougust And at the time,
she had a scheduling conflict that she could not get
out of and she tried and she tried and she tried,
and she couldn't. So let's put that to bed right now,
because she said in an interview, she said, she said,
and I suspected as much, and she said, yeah, I
literally had schedule conflica And if I recall, I think

(01:04:46):
at the time that they were doing this, I think
she was filming in Spain at the tray. Yeah, she was.
I think she was out of the country. So when
she said she couldn't like no, she yeah, like like
like you don't understand, like filming permits are signed to
think it's like you can't. You can't just change that.
That being said, I think and again I'm not try

(01:05:10):
to scheduling, but I think that squeezing Alison in for
the day for this, I'm not sure it was necessarily
the right call either, because I think we have come
down so much since since stopped. Yeah, since the funeral.
I think we enough time has passed that we've all

(01:05:32):
kind of come down from that and we're settling back
into normal Salem life. That to have Sammy come in
and then go right back out, I think is a
little jarring.

Speaker 1 (01:05:43):
What's going on?

Speaker 5 (01:05:44):
No, I think she's still there.

Speaker 4 (01:05:46):
No she no.

Speaker 3 (01:05:47):
They said that she left Marlena put her in a car. No.

Speaker 5 (01:05:50):
I thought she was saying I put her in the
uber back to the penthouse because we've seen the trailer
where we've seen Alison Sweety have more scenes than what
we saw this week.

Speaker 4 (01:06:01):
No she no.

Speaker 2 (01:06:02):
They told no. They said that she was going back
to the airport because Sidney has physical therapy.

Speaker 5 (01:06:07):
Okay, yeah, there are more scenes.

Speaker 2 (01:06:10):
With Alison's Yeah, no, I know, I know, yeah, I
know that there are more scenes coming up. But the
fact that they have had her come in just for
this and then come right back out again, it's probably
a scheduling issue. I just don't think that it lent
itself very well to the story. I think it would
have been better to find a block of time to
have her come in, do her scenes with Marlena, stay

(01:06:32):
for Johnny's trial, have her be a part of that
process because your son's on trial for murder. I'm sorry
you got to stick around.

Speaker 1 (01:06:42):
I struggle with how to say this. I thought the
scene was I thought it was beautiful. I just love
the character of Sammy. I love Alison Sweeney. I love
that we did get this moment where we saw Sammy's
reaction to losing John. If I'm being honest, it just

(01:07:12):
felt like a moment for Sammy and the focus was
all on her, which it felt weird two have this
kind of standalone episode where Sammy reflects on John. Does

(01:07:41):
that make sense? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:07:43):
Do you get it's been too it's been a while,
or like if this episode happened after the funeral or
before the funeral? Do you think it would have.

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
Yet if it had happened, yes, like after the funeral
and she just got there like late, and she was
just like, I'm so sorry, like I wanted to be
here for you, Like like I felt like it would
have maybe put a nice bow on it. But I
feel like, because so much time has passed, it felt
like a let's do a Sammy episode of her morning

(01:08:20):
john m h.

Speaker 3 (01:08:24):
And she wouldn't have had to come back to Salem
for that. It could have been wherever Sammy was.

Speaker 1 (01:08:28):
It could have been, it could have been a zoom,
it could have been a FaceTime.

Speaker 5 (01:08:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:08:33):
But but also but then I also feel like it's
weird that you flew all like she's in Italy. H.
You flew all that way for one day to walk
around the apartment, hold his photo, tell your mom how

(01:08:54):
you wish you could be there. Had some interaction with
Johnny who was on trial for murder, and the Sammy
Brady just leaves like there's no way in the world
that Sammy Brady would like Sammy Brady would have walked
in the courtroom and said, ah, not my son. And
then it would have like been just like moments of

(01:09:17):
Sammy in the courtroom being her saying objection sometimes you know,
but like but but it's like you bring her in
just you know, just for the for this, and then it's.

Speaker 5 (01:09:32):
Just Yeah, maybe I got confused because they had that
whole scene with Belle going to the inn because Sammy
was going to be at the house. So that's why
I maybe that's.

Speaker 1 (01:09:42):
Why why you thought she was going to be there long.

Speaker 5 (01:09:44):
It's going to be there a minute plus.

Speaker 1 (01:09:46):
Yeah, seen, But yeah, And I like, I don't want
to take away from the moment because I think I
think we as fans won to see that because her
and John did have such a tumultuous relationship where she

(01:10:06):
hated him. She's like, you ruined my family.

Speaker 3 (01:10:10):
He was the one she always blamed for her behavior.

Speaker 1 (01:10:13):
Right, So I felt like we needed it. I just
felt like it was a little too way after waw
like it was.

Speaker 5 (01:10:23):
A stunt kind of thing, so to speak. I mean,
like what like a stunt essentially, like if we can
get Alison back and make a big deal a lot
of it, even though she's you know, we're pretty for
twenty minutes.

Speaker 3 (01:10:35):
But yeah, yeah, I mean, it was nice. It was
nice that they were able to do that for her
and the character. But I agree with like it. Just
the disconnect is that it was it's been so we're
so far removed from it already that now they're like
bringing us back into grief, like, oh, just for the
sake of this character. But you know that finally I

(01:10:58):
was okay with it.

Speaker 1 (01:10:59):
I went of it. I mean, and a lot of
people are saying they filmed so far ahead, they could
have just like intercut that into.

Speaker 3 (01:11:08):
They could they could have obviously, yeah maybe and.

Speaker 1 (01:11:13):
Like the and like the only thing that would be
cut out is maybe like us knowing that, like, you know,
Johnny's trial is happening. Yeah, maybe if it was just
Johnny being But then I don't know because wait was
that before? No jump? Wait?

Speaker 2 (01:11:31):
Look, if The Young and the Restless can do FaceTime scenes,
when I say that they are extremely unnecessary and overused,
then surely Days could could have figured out how to
do it when there was an actual real life schedule.

Speaker 1 (01:11:49):
In Conflict Beyond the Gates just just did a FaceTime call.
I was like, that's that's new. So I don't know.
I will say this at the end of the day.
It was a beautiful moment, it was a beautiful scene.
It's always amazing to see Alison Sweeney bag. It's just
very it was just very much like like it went

(01:12:10):
off and I was just in, you know, during the
whole boom.

Speaker 5 (01:12:15):
I was just like, m I still think though too,
maybe we've and I was thinking about this this week,
and so it's funny you kind of brought that up, Tony.
Maybe we're at the point now where Sammy coming back
isn't such an event anymore, do you know what I mean?
Maybe we're far enough from movie. Like, we love Alison Sweeney.
She's great, and I think she brings a jolt to

(01:12:36):
the show, which we appreciate. But maybe we're at the
point where bring Sammy in for two months. Otherwise you know,
we're okay. You know, we're okay. We know she's doing something.
We know Elson Sweeney is busy. So the novel years, Yeah,
when you have that amazing storyline where you're like, we
can get her for three months and do something great,

(01:12:58):
then cool. But I'm at this point other than that,
it's like, okay, well, you know, we'll see you next
year when they write something great or what you know,
this kind of thing.

Speaker 2 (01:13:08):
I mean, it's not a big thing like when we
get we managed to get carried on the show because
Christy Clark actually lives out of the country.

Speaker 1 (01:13:14):
Yeah. But also I think I think what I think
the other thing is that we accepted you told us
like on the way to the airport, Sydney fell broke herself,
like so they couldn't make it. So so I think
suddenly we just accepted like like she can't.

Speaker 3 (01:13:32):
Make it, Sammy can't be part of it.

Speaker 2 (01:13:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:13:36):
And and then there was there was a part of
my thought was.

Speaker 5 (01:13:42):
If she what when you said that, I really thought
of death becomes her. You know how they were and
they would like break their bodies were so deteriorate, it
would just break apart whenever they like banged it to
something they felt on the stairs, and just think of
that like Siddy taking a lip.

Speaker 1 (01:14:04):
Right. But but it was also one of those things
where I felt like if Sammy did come back for
John's funeral, I just felt like she would have came
back more so for Marlena, yeah, than to more in John.

Speaker 5 (01:14:17):
Mm hmm. Like like I said back then, I was
totally fine with Sammy being gone. I didn't think she
was needed. Like I said, I was more interested in
Christy Clark being there, and I thought they pulled that
off and I thought that made sense. But I was
totally fine not seeing Sammy during the funeral. I think,
you know, she's been gone aloft the relationship with John.
It was okay not to see her. I would have again,

(01:14:39):
would have loved to see Alison if she had the
time and they worked it out.

Speaker 1 (01:14:42):
But you know, but I would have loved to have
seen her Bell and Carrie like you know what I mean,
Like it's like like it just like even even seeing
uh and I'm sure you're we're gonna mention this the
scene Martha Madison and Alison Sweeney and Carson Bowman do

(01:15:07):
the thing online Like there was something about that interaction
that I was like, Oh, I wish I could see
the characters interact, Like I would love to see Sammy
and Carrie interact after all this time, do you know
what I mean? Like that there's something that's very like
can they all like after everything that has transpired, Like

(01:15:29):
what is their relationship now? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:15:33):
I mean it's also to speaks the fact that when
we when we have gotten Sammy. The past couple of times,
it's been very insular. You know, the last big plot
we got with her where she was around people was
the Lucas Sammy wedding a few years ago. Every since then,
when she comes back, it's a scene with Marlena. It's
maybe like last time they did went a scene with

(01:15:54):
Kate and they gave us something with Reeve. But you know,
these scenes are getting more insular as she comes back
and it's like, Okay, I mean, you know, nice to
see you, but yeah, yeah, all.

Speaker 1 (01:16:09):
Right, well uh oh And then Susan had her yes,
her feeling does anybody know what that feeling was like?
Did they ever explain what she felt like in terms
of what Marlena?

Speaker 3 (01:16:26):
Yeah, it was, it's been it's been.

Speaker 1 (01:16:31):
Vague.

Speaker 3 (01:16:31):
I guess like something bad, Yeah, something Marlena has bad
vibrations coming out.

Speaker 1 (01:16:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:16:38):
And then something this week about her blood what about Yeah,
something about yeah, I don't know. It looks if August
is said and done and and Marlena has I saw
I've almost said that, and it's something like Marlena has
an auto disease.

Speaker 4 (01:17:02):
Like that.

Speaker 2 (01:17:03):
I'll fine, I'll take it. But we didn't need all
Susan Shan against for that.

Speaker 1 (01:17:09):
I don't know. I mean, they did all the medical
tests and yeah, you know, Sarah was like, girl, you
came out fine.

Speaker 5 (01:17:16):
Yeah. Yeah, the stuff was Sarah I thought was good
with like establishing it's nothing and well it's nothing so far,
so far physical, but Sarah is sort of like it
might be psychosomatic. We'll keep looking into it, like this
is going to be an ongoing thing. I did like
the little history with mar Lena commenting on her father's

(01:17:39):
I thought that was.

Speaker 1 (01:17:40):
Yeah, which one neil at all?

Speaker 5 (01:17:44):
Which is funny because I thought she would have, like
the whole reason mar Lena is in Salemusy because of Mickey,
So I thought she would have said that part. I
was like, oh, that's like you could have like reminded.

Speaker 1 (01:17:52):
Her of that little thing she said which one? Yeah.
I was.

Speaker 5 (01:18:02):
Called too because I think the the natural progression was
she's talking about Mickey. But yeah, when she said what did.

Speaker 3 (01:18:10):
Would you say your father would be proud? And she
said which one? Yeah, yeah, I remember, I remember she
said I remember that.

Speaker 5 (01:18:17):
I was like, oh and I but then I had
to remember.

Speaker 3 (01:18:21):
I was like, wait, who are who two daddies and
then it was yeah, yeah, Mickey, and then I was like, oh,
that's why they named the baby.

Speaker 5 (01:18:29):
I'm like, okay, now, although mar Lad it was one
talking about but she had to like come up with
something quick to say about Neil's She was like, oh, uh,
Neil was good too, like he's like he's a good
doctor like you. It was like, okay, like that that
was the only good thing about him. What are you
talking about?

Speaker 3 (01:18:50):
Lord?

Speaker 1 (01:18:53):
All right, well that was that our last bit adoption woes.
I'm just gonna say it, Okay, tain't.

Speaker 3 (01:19:12):
Shut He had a moment where I was like, all right, dude,
you're I'm coming around to your side. And then.

Speaker 1 (01:19:21):
No, I want to send stuff to the baby, and
I want to see.

Speaker 3 (01:19:24):
Her, and I want to write a letter and I
just want to I want to see I want to
she my daughter. I'm like, oh, shut the fuck up.
And I'm like, I don't why am I? And I
kept on, I'm like, why am I having such a
visceral reaction to this man wanting some closure with his child.
But I'm like, because if you look at it in
that context, you're like, well maybe shit, maybe skid kid.

(01:19:48):
But knowing this, I just I have like this, like
I'm yeah, shut the fuck up.

Speaker 1 (01:19:55):
Like the second he was sitting on the bench and
was like, hey, Sophia, let's take uh Rachel h bought
something for the baby, and uh you know, I you
know want so we were just wondering if you can
uh get me the address. It's like, see, this is
why you're proven why you don't need to see You

(01:20:16):
don't need to see the baby because you're gonna get attached.
And Sophia is like, listen, I'm trying to live my life, okay.
I'm trying to get to where you are. Okay, I'm
trying to be out here, back in these streets, okay.
And the baby is not part of the p L
A N all right. And if you go see that

(01:20:37):
baby and you want to hold that baby, you don't
want to raise that baby. And guess who ain't raising
no babies right now, me, Sophie. Okay, so stop asking
me about the baby, Stop asking me about the adopted parents,
stop asking me stuff. Okay, the baby was dropped off
at the fire station, is over there with Hobby and Leo.
Leay me alone.

Speaker 2 (01:20:56):
And I think you you, I think Tony you touched
on the point exactly, which is that Tate. While Tate
has been supportive throughout Sophia's pregnancy, his life has gone
on his life, His life apart from Sophia has not
been on pause. Her life has been on pause. And

(01:21:20):
if she kept the baby would continue to be on pause.
She would never get to accomscious of things that she
wants to do. And Tate has not seen that because
his life has not been the one on pause. And
so when he says that he just wants closure, she
has no reason to believe him because because his tone
is just getting more desperate and you know what, totally

(01:21:43):
totally valid feelings his you know, I acknowledge his feelings
are completely valid. And again, if he wanted to be
a full time parent, okay, that's that's one thing. Okay,
if you want to be a full time parent, take
on the responsibility. And had brought that up previously with Sophia,
she probably would have said, here you go. But because

(01:22:07):
that was never gonna happen with her mother, she was like, nope,
we're not doing this, We're not doing this. I'm god,
I'm taking an executive decision making here.

Speaker 1 (01:22:17):
It is an open adoption. But like it needs to
be closed and no contact unless the baby want to
at eighteen in no of your life, I don't push
this baby out and like I am done with it.

Speaker 2 (01:22:31):
She sees the reality of being a mother.

Speaker 5 (01:22:34):
He does not.

Speaker 2 (01:22:35):
That's the thing, because he's a man, he's his feelings
are totally real and great, but he has he's no
concept of the reality of taking care of a child.

Speaker 5 (01:22:45):
Mm hmmm.

Speaker 3 (01:22:49):
He's just mad because she went and did it by
herself and he didn't have a saying.

Speaker 1 (01:22:54):
It right because he was too busy with Holly. Okay,
Sophia there having a full on baby and.

Speaker 3 (01:23:03):
Choices.

Speaker 1 (01:23:06):
Oh Sophia's choice.

Speaker 2 (01:23:12):
I mean yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:23:17):
Booo new material alert.

Speaker 2 (01:23:20):
Yeah, accurate and accurate.

Speaker 1 (01:23:26):
That was good. I mean, thank god from Melinda who
was figuring it out.

Speaker 3 (01:23:35):
She did slip up, not thinking that, not realizing that
Sarah might know that Sarah would know that.

Speaker 1 (01:23:42):
Yeah, well, you know, none of us was thinking that
until Sarah went to went to looking around and she said,
you don't have to tell me how because.

Speaker 3 (01:23:51):
And loose with ship. So you know, it's a concern
that Sarah knows because.

Speaker 2 (01:23:56):
Yeah, but I don't know that she necessarily knows the truth,
because even though Sophia told says she she told Melinda
that she told Sarah the truth, we did, we did
not hear that truth. And so until I see Sarah
walking around and looking for little baby, then I'm not
gonna believe that she actually knows.

Speaker 1 (01:24:16):
Anything we weren't told or we didn't see her telling Sarah,
because we already know the truth. We didn't need to
sit there and listen to that explanation. So we just
gonna have to assume that she she she said everything.

Speaker 3 (01:24:35):
Sarah knows enough to Sarah knows enough that if she
was to tell what she knows, it would arouse enough
suspicion around the right people to get the ball rolling
with the bagating.

Speaker 4 (01:24:50):
And I.

Speaker 5 (01:24:51):
Wouldn't be surprised. So if if Sophia told her but switched.

Speaker 7 (01:24:55):
Some details, yes, that part that's because.

Speaker 5 (01:24:58):
I don't know if Sarah wanted to after she told her,
Sarah logically could make the connection to Sorow's the baby.
Do you know what I'm saying? I think she may
have some of that to like still keep that a secret.
She could have told her to drop the baby off
in Chicago. That's That's what I'm kind of thinking like
she told her enough of the truth to get her
off her back, but not necessarily everything she.

Speaker 1 (01:25:20):
Did, well, Sarah's got a handful anyway.

Speaker 3 (01:25:25):
Don't worry about this girl.

Speaker 1 (01:25:27):
Like at some point I want I want Sarah to
keep it real and be like, girl, I ain't worried
about your baby. I'm trying to worry about mine. Do
you see?

Speaker 3 (01:25:33):
Do you do?

Speaker 1 (01:25:34):
You see who I'm married to, who I'm separating from.

Speaker 2 (01:25:36):
No, see, that's what That's what we want Sarah to do.
I just don't think that's what she's actually going to do.

Speaker 3 (01:25:43):
No, Sarah can't help herself. Sarah in that respect, she
can't help herself when she knows a secret. When she
has a secret, she has to do something.

Speaker 5 (01:25:51):
That's now she's gonna wrote Alex and Stephanie.

Speaker 3 (01:25:57):
She's gonna be like, oh hey, guys, uh, Alex and
Stefan are gonna fight out, and then she's gonna be up.
But we need to keep it a secret.

Speaker 1 (01:26:04):
You know what.

Speaker 3 (01:26:05):
We know what we did with Philip. We're gonna do
that again.

Speaker 5 (01:26:09):
It's the same. You can't tell Brady you to keep
it a secret. You can't tell Brady your tape that
to Soros's baby, can't you.

Speaker 1 (01:26:23):
All right? Well, that's been your week of days of
our lives everybody. We are now going to travel over
into our segments and we're gonna start with mine, which
is ton Tee's Official Three Snaps Award. My three Snaps

(01:26:44):
Award goes to a woman who had had it Julie
Williams Susan C. Fourth Hayes. She had me at and
keep your hands off of Ata girl's husband, And particularly
in this scene when Marlana was like, baby, let's go

(01:27:06):
get some coffee. Baby, I already have coffee at the house. Okay,
I ain't gotta get no call fick, Okay, I'm already.
Calfeened up. Marlana was like, oh good. She was like,
I guess I can walk with you. So for those reasons,

(01:27:29):
thank you, Susan C. Fourth as you started the week
off good and you get Tony's Official Please Snamps Award.
And now it's time for Hello, Hello, that all right?

Speaker 3 (01:27:54):
This week's caption that photo comes courtesy of my favorite
scene of the week, when Sophia was walking into Brady
Pub saw lea excuse me, sob Tate and tried to
turn around and be like, oop's just kidding, but too late.
He saw her anyway, And this caption goes to Tyler

(01:28:14):
Najeer ty Ty on Instagram with his caption finally lost
the baby weight. Now just gotta lose the baby daddy weight. Okay,
get that man off my back.

Speaker 1 (01:28:29):
What what I don't understand is like Tate saw her,
like Sophia looked at him, jan in his face and
went nope. And he's like Sophia and she's like, oh hey,
I want to said the hell you saw me?

Speaker 3 (01:28:52):
Why I you didn't see me?

Speaker 1 (01:28:55):
Actually, the second she turned around would have said, Sophia,
don't tell like you don't see me. You see me.
I see you.

Speaker 2 (01:29:03):
That was a plus, Tyler, I'm gonna quote you on
that one day.

Speaker 1 (01:29:09):
Put me on what weight?

Speaker 2 (01:29:14):
That's just that plus.

Speaker 3 (01:29:16):
In Ohio this past Christmas, they were being nice by
the way, and and said like they didn't seen me
in a while, and they're like, oh, you look like
you've lost weight, and I was like, yeah, I left
about two hundred pounds.

Speaker 1 (01:29:31):
He wasn't two hundred pounds.

Speaker 3 (01:29:36):
I was ball parking.

Speaker 5 (01:29:41):
Woof not wrong.

Speaker 1 (01:29:43):
And that has been tension there and now it's time
to go my bad.

Speaker 3 (01:29:59):
Premature, and no one likes that, no one likes to
be with true.

Speaker 1 (01:30:05):
Tell me, let's let's try out again. It's now time
to go back in time too.

Speaker 5 (01:30:19):
All right, everyone, thank you back to August fifth, nineteen
ninety nine, when Kristen Storms debuted as Belle Black. This is,
of course, when they decided to sores the younger kids
on the show, Belle, Sean, Brady, and Phillip all at
the same time. Yes, August fifth, nineteen ninety nine, and
for those are the days to send it, which you
can check out rape. After we end this, I decided

(01:30:42):
to take a little deep dive into the last blast curve,
which in my opinion was the last sort of great
teen scene that the show actually did. So yeah, I'll
started again August fifth, nineteen nine nine with Christmas Storms
as Belle Black.

Speaker 1 (01:30:56):
And well so earlier when I said, oh, what something
I was grateful for has is related today? Twenty one
years ago Martha Madison started Days of Our Lives and

(01:31:19):
I said, I am forever grateful or ever grateful, and
I will always go on record to say I am
forever grateful for Martha Madison to take over the role

(01:31:40):
as Bell.

Speaker 2 (01:31:41):
Hey, grateful, Tony.

Speaker 5 (01:31:44):
I'm grateful for that.

Speaker 3 (01:31:45):
And also since she took over, she also became like
I joke that she was like she helped Tony out
when he was first here. She helped me out when
I was first here in LA, And I was like,
she sees astray a come from like you know, mother
to the stray gaze of La.

Speaker 1 (01:32:03):
So well like and and Martha and I we I'm
sure I've told this story before. We met at a
fan event when she first started.

Speaker 3 (01:32:17):
Oh my god, that means I've known her for twenty years.
Almost twenty years.

Speaker 1 (01:32:22):
Yeah, we still look the same, but we met at
a fan event and uh and like you know when
I when I moved to LA, Yeah, she she picked
me up. We went and had had uh lunch, and uh.

(01:32:46):
She's always been someone that like I could like depend on.
So not only grateful for Martha Madison, but I'm I'm
just grateful for her talent as well, because.

Speaker 3 (01:33:01):
She said that she learned her lines three hours before
she taped.

Speaker 1 (01:33:08):
Mm hmmm, you couldn't tell no, and the one before
her probably had a whole.

Speaker 7 (01:33:13):
Week anyway, bus Tony is so so grateful, as.

Speaker 2 (01:33:25):
Are we all.

Speaker 1 (01:33:26):
Very grateful shout out to Martha Madison. Okay, thank you,
thank you for being a Bell. All right, let's move
on to.

Speaker 2 (01:33:39):
It's a Gift, and this week's It's a Gift goes
to the Dynamic duo, but the it is a contrasting
duo of Felicity to Julie.

Speaker 1 (01:34:01):
Julie was not having it, honey, she was not having it.
She was like this cat green can go somewhere.

Speaker 2 (01:34:11):
But I do think it's the it's the it's the huge,
like exuberant smile from Felicity at the beginning. And then.

Speaker 3 (01:34:21):
Call that a juxtaposition.

Speaker 2 (01:34:23):
Yes, it is a perfect juxtaposition.

Speaker 1 (01:34:26):
Who you call the dust a position, I will position you.

Speaker 3 (01:34:32):
It was Felicity is like, oh yeah, maybe they banged,
and Julie's like.

Speaker 1 (01:34:36):

talk about how, like you know, crossovers can happen between
the soaps Brighton from Bolden, the Beautiful, Young Rests the
Restless came On or is coming to Beyond the Gates.
