The Brady Pub Bob and Blanca are there for diner after ordering their food bob walks up to the bar

Hey Roman

Bob… Happy New Year

Happy New year to you too

SO Roman i hear that Steve is back..to protect Marlena from Stefano

That’s right it’s been said that the SOB is up to his old tricks

As if Marlena needs anyone, but john to protect her .. ANYWAY. Roman did you remember the old saying/biblical verse “The Eyes are the key to the soul”

Of course

Well i think someone’s eyes are all “Patched up”

You lost me

Just remember what i said .EVERYONE’S MEALS ARE ON ME Bob placed a few hundreds on the table the customers cheered as roman put the money in the register Bob returned to his seat

This Week in Salem

 

Gabi and Eli investigated the Chic Store broken window naturally Gabi thought it was Abigail/Chad at first because Abigail is no stranger to breaking windows but coming to her senses after Eli stepped in  and said a nun did it everyone moved on

Why doesn’t a Dimera property have shatter proof windows
Because Ben’s not on the job of course. Silly question

After seeing Brady and Nicole go into an apartment together Kristen got into a murderous rage

That’s the Kristen i remember

Lani talked her down and told Kristen about her feeling the same way they both refocused

Brady and Nicole stopped Kristen of course won’t know or wouldn’t believe anyway

Hattie avoided telling Roman Kate had a man in her room. But Roman suspecting it anyway shook it off as none of his business

Why can’t multiple CEO and former everything find a hotel other than above a pub why doesn’t she have her own house?

No idea

Roman told Hattie that he doesn’t date employee’s PERIOD

How very 2020 of him

Isn’t it 2021 in Salem

SHHHH

How are you liking the stories post time jump? Rumor has it that soon they will have some shows dedicated to time gap filling!

Are you looking forward to that?

Kate told Stevano that his obsession with marlena would end badly for everyone

She’s right about that doing this is..Bad enough to many/most but if Stevano continues to act like its 1996 ….just don’t know

Marlena and Gina discussed Stefano back in Salem

Who will figure this out first

Has to be Marlena or John   i think John will find out just as its time for a good old fashioned IM TAKING YOU WITH ME MARLENA ..sigh the old days

Where do you see the writers taking this?

Rafe chastised Hope for making a mistake with fingerprints on evidence

She’s human Rafe give the woman a break

Thought you hated Hope

I do

Hattie told Marlena Roman hired her  Stevano is getting bored

That’s not good..

Which one

Either i suppose being rejected will make the fans like Hattie more than they already do/via sympathy but i can’t blame roman for .., not wanting to be with his ex-wife’s twin

Think about that from Roman’s perspective what do you think?

Gabi knowing it was lane who did the window thinks she can use that to get Kristen’s Dimera shares

Gabi is smoking something foul maybe it’s coming from her smoking hot outfits

Blanca kicked him under the table

OWW what i mean is gabi must be High if she thinks she can handle kristen   Chad sure he’s an idiot that won’t cross any lines But Kristen  Gabi better have her bags packed

Of course knowing the shows favoritism it’s probably going to be Chad But we’ll see

Who will take down Gabi ?

After blaming each other for there missteps Steve put on an eye patch and went to the party

John Marlena and Kayla discussed if it was Stefano Santa at the party

DONT SING snapped Blanca with a smile

Right…

After Julie gave a speech the New Year rang in

How was everyone’s new year’s ?

Steve Walked in and Said I’m BACK

Steve and hope together puzzled john and  Marlena

Did the wheels start spinning in johns head yet?

Kayla and Justin took turns ripping into Steve

Did you cheer them on

Nah

Why not

Well they are happy with each other   Kayla has a right to be pissed but Justin he benefited

WAIT is Justin in on this too

Stop it

Stevano said he was back to protect Marlena from Stefano Dimera and actually suggested living with her and john

sigh  SMDH  she has john couldn’t the writers come up with something else

I like it to a point i would have preferred it if Stevano said I’m Stefano in Steve’s body went back to the mansion Kicked Gabi out and then yelled at Chad for the empty space on where his portrait was ,but whatever

Is it the story or the concept that bugs you the most

Kristen pounced on Nicole naturally Brady handled it badly Nicole insisted nothing happened and wondered why a nun would care

Kristen ripped off her habit announcing that she broke up (with god)

Were you stunned by this?

no but i did like the color of the outfit ..anyway Kristen called out all of everyone’s hypocrisies and announced that she was back for Brady  a fight broke out stupid Brady broke it up and kristen went on about Nicole and Eric and hurt and the like not believing nothing happened

Brady just give in please Salem would be so much better off

And what about your Nicole

Nicole can move in with us ..Seriously though her and Brady are not a couple hopefully soon a new guy will come in for Nicole she needs someone else she can repeat all her lies to

Sigh poor Ari Zucker rinse recycle repeat over and over and over again.. She’s getting paid  doesn’t matter MOVING ON

Lani told Gabi there was no way Kristen would be selling her shares, Gabi told Eli that it started out fake with her and Eli but it was real now and she needs to stay away or Julie gets the button

sigh i was hoping they did away with all that after the incident where Gabi and Eli’s sex triggered it but whatever Gabi’s not too bright ..She’s tough but you need more than brawn

Kayla dreamed Steve didn’t abandon her

So much for Justin

Who would you rather Justin or Steve?

Stevano met Hattie in the townhouse and he explained away his return to the eye patch

Will Hattie be Stevano’s undoing ?

Kayla forgetting about Justin tried to reach out and possible return to Steve she got upset when Steve said he was in love with another woman and was clearly hurt by this

SMH WOMEN    is Kayla ridiculous or just sad

Its more complicated than that

is this about closure or would she drop Justin in a heart beat

I think Justin should use his kirakis name to make steve miserable

Kate the voice of sanity and reason tried to tell Gina that none of this will work naturally Gina shrugged it off

When this is all over and done with shouldn’t everyone be most mad at Kate

Hopefully

Xander can’t get Victor to see that Caira is a real threat  Victor said that Ben is down to his last appeal so none of this matters

shouldn’t Victor the REAL Victor be able to ensure Ben never gets out

The Real victor should be able to yes

As Xander went to see Ben,an Angry Victor confronted Ciara on her lying to him about visiting Ben

And the credits rolled

For a short week that was pretty good their diner came and Bob nodded your welcome to customers who thanked him
