Rob’s office conference room late Friday
“Are you ready?”
“Haven’t we done enough; we’ve been at this for an hour?”
“Xander is coming for you next Nicole. Please last one.”
“Okay,” Rob from behind Nicole grabbed her, interlocking his one arm around her waist and another across her chest.”
“You remember that. Come on, you can do this,” Nicole struggled a bit but couldn’t break free of the hold.
“You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?” She mocked.
“I would be, if Zander wasn’t a woman hating psychopath. Now come on like I taught you,” Nicole struggled again.
“This will help Rob step on something. The music from Ghost started playing; Nicole getting serious kicked Rob in the chin and ducked under his flailing arms causing him to fall to the ground.When Rob was on his side and started to turn over, she Kicked him hard in the chest.
“OWWW (cough cough)”
“Great job Nicole, great job.”
“Are you okay?”
“I’ll be fine,” Rob got up.
“Can we go eat now?”
“Sure, (cough-cough), sure.”
This Week In Salem
“Is Chloe making a mistake?”
I tore into Damos about involving Dario in the underhanded ways of baby busting, making him come to clean. Chloe for my sake, agreed to drop the whole thing.
Is it over? Will Damos move on?
Aiden tried one last time to play nice with Hope, but ended up trying to blackmail her into leaving him.Hope countered with her, I know Chase killed his mother.
Aiden countered with his, I know you killed Stefano and had Rafe cover it up.
“How much longer until Aiden is gone?”
Aldo attacked Gabby again; when caught, he revealed that Dario hired him when confronted Dario said he did it to get Edgardo out of their lives.
Will Gabby forgive Dario? Can she mend this broken family now that Mami has left town?
Brady owned up for what happened at the docks.
Kate convinced Chad to leave Andre back into Dimera enterprises and that he would be useful in their upcoming business ventures involving the Kirakis docks.
I hope Andre doesn’t trust Chad?
“Shouldn’t that be the other way around?”
“Nah!!!”
Clyde told Orpheus his plan for Chad Thomas Aiden and his son Ben.
Marlena continued her profiles on the stooges to help catch them.
Joey did some good psycho analyzing of his own on Orpheus.
Could you see Joey as a therapist someday?
“Why not, he’s already better at it than Marlena?”
“Yeah! She’s done you a lot of good?”
“Thanks,” Nicole and rob chuckled.
Aiden warned Andre not to get in his way.
Maybe, it’s Andre that removes Aiden from Salem.
Kate offered to help catch Clyde.
Will Kate play a factor in bringing Clyde down?
The stooges continue to implode this time arguing about timing and strategies.
“Who cracks first?”
Marlena talked to me and Victor about Xander we all insinuated that Victor take some of the blame?
“Is victor responsible for anything Xander?”
Sonny’s fighting with Chad over the docks got him even closer to Paul.
How much longer until the will, they or won’t they, is done.
John showed up at a meeting to pay the ransom.
Steve and Supercop JJ attempted a Joey rescue plan.
Theo showed up and pulled a gun on Clyde.
GO THEO !?
But he couldn’t go through with it.
Awww… Did Clyde shoot him?
“No.”
“Theo is lucky, hopefully he doesn’t hesitate next time.”
Orpheus received and abort text from Clyde and the transfer was incomplete.
TIME OUT
“what?”
Again I have to ask? If this was about money; why didn’t they just take Victor’s money and be gone?”
“I don’t know how these psychos think?”
“Sigh”
“Orpheus declared playtime was over; he was going to kill them all and burn Salem to the ground.”
“Okay that’s it. You need to move in with me now; my place is outside the blast radius.”
“How can you be certain of that and I don’t think Blanca would like that?”
“I’ll convince her.”
“Forget it ,how are the two of you anyway?”
“Good! Really really good,” Nicole smiled happily for Rob.
“Thanks for that lesson. I hope I don’t need to use it.”
“Me too. How about guns? I have lots of guns.”
“I remember. Thanks but I’m good.”
