A Heartless Sociopath

Johnny thinks trying to predict a jury verdict is a fool's errand. There must be a lot of people in Salem trying to predict the verdict. #DAYS

Brady thinks it's strange Sophia referred to the baby as "he" when Sophia previously said it's a girl. Maybe the baby is already trans. #DAYS

Paulina: "Only a heartless sociopath would do what Kristin did." Chanel: "You're right… which explains why Kristen did it." #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Leo: "You look like a kid whose ice cream just fell off his cone." Marlena: "Her cone. My pronouns haven't changed." #DAYS

Kristen pleads guilty in order to protect her daughter Rachael "Annie Oakley" Black. #DAYS

Rachael owes Kristen a pretty big Mother's Day present next year. #DAYS

A Quickie

Alex says he knows Stephanie is busy and he shouldn't distract her. Stephanie: "I'm always ready for a certain kind of distraction." Translation: A quickie. #DAYS

Rachel breaks the glass ball after being told to put it down, then it's revealed she shot EJ. She needs both a spanking and a 20 year prison sentence. #DAYS

Scenes we'd like to see: Johnny is found guilty. EJ and Marlena have to go through all kinds of machinations to try to get the verdict reversed while keeping Rachael out of the Salem Reform School for Hopeless Brats. #DAYS
Tate thinks it would be better to stop obsessing over meeting his daughter, to "let it go." Doesn't he know people in Salem don't stop obsessing over things and just let them go? #DAYS

Kristin wants to wait until the jury decides and if they find Johnny guilty file an appeal. And in our slow-as-molasses court system the appeal would only take a few years. #DAYS

Even if EJ tells the court Rachael shot him and Kristen doesn't back him up, there is no corroboration and his revelation might not have much clout and wouldn't really change things. #DAYS

The SODDI Defence

Rachael tells the bookseller she's only interested in snakes. Because she knows so many of them in Salem. #DAYS

Chanel: "That video was doctored." Belle: "That's an insinuation." This from the woman who put the sin in insinuation. #DAYS

Chad and Cat reach the "you're a good friend" stage. FWB stage pending. #DAYS

Mr. Foster gives Rachael the book. She can read it in reform school. #DAYS

Johnny gives his summation using what is known as the SODDI defense. (Some Other Dude Did It). #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Marlena: "I'm taking an indefinite leave of absence." Cat: "For how long?" Marlena: "What part of 'indefinite confuses you? #DAYS

Mr. Foster is delighted the bookstore will be in Julie's capable hands. And her money will be in his capable hands. #DAYS

Her Horny Fans

Kayla thinks Patch is worried that Alex isn't "the one" for Stephanie. He might be her e pluribus unum, if you catch my drift. #DAYS

Johnny fires EJ and decides to represent himself. Given EJ's catastrophic strategy it's possible Johnny now has a better attorney. #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — EJ: "Now can I get my son to trust me again?" Tony: "Have another son." #DAYS

People who have represented themselves in court: serial killer Ted Bundy, serial killer H.H. Holmes, Manson follower Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme, DC serial killer John Allen Muhammad, Mafioso Carmine "The Snake" Persico, among others. Johnny DiMera joins a select group. #DAYS

A novelist named Anastasia Sands,
Wrote of love in far-off lands.
Her books were quite hot,
With a steamy subplot,
That she sold to her horny fans.

A Stupid Tosspot

Next on #DOOL:  Tate: "Why do you look so shocked?" Holly: "We were standing half-naked hugging and you asked, 'Do you want to..." Tate: "And you said 'yes' so we had sex." Holly: "Right, but I thought you meant, 'Do you want to have lunch.'" #DAYS

What good does it do if EJ remembers Johnny didn't shoot him. That means someone else shot him and that time it could have been anyone in Salem… including Johnny. #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Sarah: "Did you enjoy sleeping with that British slut?" Xander: "Which one?" #DAYS

Paulina: "I made them hurry the City Council meeting along. Based on personal experience that is impossible. #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Xander: "I could never cheat on you." Sarah: "Because you would be on someone else." #DAYS

Xander: "What the hell is wrong with you?" Gwen: "Nothing that a roll in the hay couldn't fix." #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Gwen: "You're a stupid tosspot." Xander: "Flattery will get you nowhere." #DAYS

Sex Is Out of the Question

Chad and Cat are living as if they've been married for 20 years. It's a congenial relationship but sex is out of the question. #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Holly: "Do you mind if I take a shower here?" Tate: "Need company?"

I think this time Tate and Holly understand the gravity of what they are doing… because that's what made the towels fall. #DAYS

I hope Tate and Holly are using protection. Some lessons only need to be learned once. #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Tate: "Was it good for you?" Holly: "Best five minutes of my life." #DAYS

Belle walks in on Tate and Holly: "YIKES! Who do you think you are… EJ and me?" #DAYS

Belle walking in on Holly and Tate romping would have qualified for one of my "Scenes we'd like to see" comments. #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Tate: "Thanks for saying you'll be discrete about finding Holly and me having sex." Belle: "No problem. By the way, based on what I saw, you have a great ass." #DAYS

Until I Get Horny

Next on #DOOL — EJ: "I don't like to take medication." Gwen: "Even Viagra?" #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Sarah: "I won't surprise kiss you again." Brady: "Feel free to surprise me anytime." #DAYS

And thus begins the genesis of the Brady-Gabi-Xander-Sarah quadrangle. #DAYS

Marlena: "The Salem Hospital makes a great cappuccino." That's the first time "great" and anything involving hospital coffee has ever been used in the same sentence. #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — EJ: "You said I was dead to you." Belle: "You are… but our sex life isn't." #DAYS

Leo: "I find 'true crime' a little to murdery." It could also be a little                                        robberingy or kidnappingy or a lot of other thingsy. #DAYS

The outside of Marlena's apartment building looks like something built during the Soviet gulag. #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Mrs. Cho: "I'd like to work on rebuilding our relationship." Sophia: "I'd like that… but you're not very good at that kind of thing." #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Johnny: "Have you broken things off with my dad?" Belle: "Yes… until the next time I get horny." #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Mrs. Choi to Sophia: "I think you should see a therapist." Hmmm… I wonder who that would be. #DAYS

Scenes we'd like to see: "Rachel breaks down on the stand and admits she shot EJ. #DAYS

Next on #DOOL — Mrs. Choi: "So Tesoro has two foster dads?" Javi: "Yes." Mrs. Choi: "I can recommend a good conversion therapist." #DAYS
