    Man-Sized Bowl Of Ice Cream.

    Wednesday, April 18 2012
    Austin and Carrie bump into Rafe and Nicole, Abigail is saved by Cameron, and Gabi learns Will's secret.


    Carrie and Austin chat about his day as they arrive at the pub. Carrie suggests an outdoor movie but Austin prefers something more private. They head inside and greet Rafe. "Wow man that is a man-sized bowl of ice cream you've got there. I never thought of you as the sprinkles type." Carrie points out the ice cream is for Nicole. Rafe goes off and Carrie and Austin get a table while Carrie tries to pry her eyes off Rafe. Nicole offers to leave and feels guilty that his relationship with Carrie is done because of their lies. Rafe insists he's fine but Nicole doesn't get how he can be so honorable all the time. Nearby, Carrie and Austin make plans to go home for dessert. Rafe admits it's a drag going home alone. He misses the chaos of living with the kids. They decide to go see the movie at the square.



    At the Coffee Bean, Will wraps up a deal with a client of EJ's who hands over free tickets to some event. Gabi watches as Will accepts happily. When the client leaves, Gabi calls Will more confident and thinks it's thanks to his job. She butters him up and then asks him to help her break-up Melanie and Chad so she can be with Chad. Will smirks and gets sarcastic. Is she kidding him? "You're not like this." Gabi asks what being the good girl has gotten her. Why did he give up on them? Gabi blames herself for Will dumping her. Will tells her, "It was about me not knowing who I was." He confides that he's gay.



    Chad and Melanie walk with Abby through the square. They tell her they've invited a guy along to the movies tonight. They think she'll like him. When Cameron turns up, he tells Abby how flattered he is but she didn't have to go through all the trouble of asking Chad to set them up. Abby protests that she is as surprised as he is. He acts like a wise-ass and when she's offended, he apologizes. Chad and Mel get some popcorn while they debate whether or not Cameron and Abby will hook up. The movie begins and everyone scarfs popcorn. Abby and Cam give each other looks and when Abby starts choking on popcorn, Cameron does the Heimlich. Abby's airwaves are cleared and she blasts Cameron, insisting she didn't need help. She runs off and Mel finds her. Abby groans about Cam's help and how embarrassed she is to have coughed up popcorn in front of strangers. Melanie thinks Cameron likes her. Abby goes into denial and admits she's still trying to figure out who she is, after the horrible things she did to Austin. Melanie can see she's hiding from life. Nicole and Rafe turn up. They discuss their lives in movie montages and Nicole hopes his movie montage is over soon. He deserves a happily ever after. Nic leaves Rafe behind.



    Harold stops Kate from entering the great room at the DiMera mansion. She's there to pick up her belongings but Harold tells her Mr. DiMera had all of her effects removed. EJ interrupts asking to come in. "Or have my things been removed too?" Both he and Kate wonder what Stefano's been up to. Harold leaves and EJ informs her he knows she's out of a job. Kate rants about Sami but EJ says Stefano's her real enemy. He yells about Stefano not running this by him and asks what she did to make Stefano turn against her. He guesses she cheated. She doesn't want to discuss it. They can't figure out why Stefano's undermining EJ.



    Marlena and John visit Bo at the hospital. Hope refuses to tell him what happened in Alamainia right now. They ponder Stefano's whereabouts. Outside, Stefano paces the corridor. A nurse arrives to take blood and kicks everyone out. They find Stefano waiting. He wants the original coin. John and Hope play dumb. Bo comes walking out in his hospital gown and stands up to Stefano's threats. Stefano makes fun of Bo and then exchanges threats with John. When Stefano leaves, everyone gives Bo answers.



    Austin and Carrie return to the hotel room and make love. Afterward, Carrie sneaks out of bed while Austin sleeps.



    Stefano walks in on EJ and Kate at home. He comments that misery really does love company. He invites them to leave but EJ wants answers. "Fun time is over Father." Stefano lights a cigar. "Really. I thought it had just begun."



    Back at the square, Abby and Cam agree to start fresh. Chad and Mel watch the duo happily and then kiss. Rafe is about to leave the movie when it gets too corny and too close to reality when he spots Carrie.


    Sneak peek!

    Madi and Brady reunite and make love.

    Melanie confronts a pushy female fan.

    when exacatly did carrie and rafe have a 'relationship'? nicole is trying to make it seem as if they were together as a couple for years. austin and carrie do bore me, they did not used too way back when-they were 1st loveds, but since they returned to salem they sure bore me. not to mention the whole abby obsessing over austin was lame too. maybe austin and carrie do split and then return to each other. this show does need a new bo/hope and john/marlena love stories to continue.....

    Au oh, starting to really like EJ again. Telling Kate Stefano is her real eemny, not sami. DUH! Even if Stefano knows about EJ from Alice's letter, then why is being SO mean to EJ? EJ did not know. OR did he....??????

    I'm sure Hope, Bo, John and Stefano didn't have to rehearse their scenes, because they've said the same dialogue for the last15 or 20 years. I will destroy you, you're going to jail. Whatever.

    wash_08: LOL! What a funny but true statement. They must say the lines in their sleep. It's so predictable.

    Hello to all, Yeah Nicole is making it sound as tho Rafe n Carrie have been together for a while instead of the short time it was. Now from the way he was talking to her today, sounds like he's really missing Sammi n those kids! he was talking all about the little things he misses plus he really doesn't like being alone....well he wouldn't need to be alone ...if...but I do believe Sammi has more or less kinda 'moved on but wonder if she would re-consider them getting back together...oh that's right, she thinks he got Nic preggy, man o man!

    So glad Will told Gabi he's gay! Also glad he said that he would NOT help her break those other two up, wicked glad of that! Abbie now really should try n get over her recent past n move on coz there's this very handsome fella right there more or less 'for th taking' as they say ;-) ...and Melanie's trying her best to help it along so I really wish Gabi would get outta her funk she's in n get a life so she could see what there really is to be had in the fashion world!

    I am thinking one of the biggest reasons ole Stefano is doing what he's doing to EJ is he knows EJ's not his kid so he's gonna make it impossible for EJ to not be able 'to take over' the family business....jmo here.....this ole guy is pretty spry for an old fella! Plus making all kinds a threats to just about all he meets whether it's in the hospital or where. Got Bo outta bed now didn't it!
    And today's show was pretty good, too! Keeps me watching even tho they don't show what's gonna happen tomorrow.
