    Buzzkill.

    Friday, August 17 2012
    Brady learns of Madi's death, Sami and EJ get amorous, and Daniel comes to a realization.


    EJ kisses Sami at Stefano's safe house, tired of delaying the inevitable. They make-out for a while but Sami tells him this is wrong. EJ thinks Lucas is a distraction and thinks Lucas knows this. Sami argues that she has feelings for Lucas and didn't follow EJ to fall into bed with him. They start kissing again on the sofa until EJ's computer starts beeping. They come up for breath and EJ starts reading a code Stefano created on his computer. His contact has information that could clear his name! EJ has to meet him. Alone. Sami worries and EJ likes it. They kiss before he goes. Sami looks at photos of the kids and spills coffee on her outfit so changes into the dress while somebody tries to get in. Suddenly, Rafe appears behind her.



    Nicole wakes up, startled and happy to find Daniel at her bedside in the hospital. It's a dream. In another room, Maxine tends to Melanie's wounds. Maggie finds her granddaughter and rushes into her arms. They were all so worried. Chad says Andrew needs to be held responsible for what he did. If he ever got his hands on him... Melanie tells them what it was like being held by Andrew. Why did he kidnap her? Gabi flashes to talking to Andrew and Roman arrives. He tells them the gas leak has been contained. Back in Nicole's room, Father Matt makes an appearance. Nicole updates him about her baby and lies that it's not EJ's. In another room, Roman asks for Melanie's statement. They leave the room and Gabi stews. Maggie finds Daniel at the nurse's desk. He's bitter about Melanie's kidnapping and blames himself for not paying enough attention to his daughter. What he was doing while Melanie was kidnapped was unforgivable.



    In Madison's hotel room, Brady asks Kate where Madison is. Kate tells Brady she's sorry and hugs him. He demands to know what happened. He thinks he could have stopped this from happening. Kate explains that she was gone before the paramedics got there. She was in front of a window that imploded. She blames Ian. Brady wants to go after him but John walks in and stops Kate. If she wants revenge on Ian, she can do it herself. He throws her out but before she goes, she tells Brady that Madison professed her love for him before she died. Brady tries to get by John to get to Ian but John says Madison's death was an accident. Brady screams that he wants to kill Ian. "Can't I kill the guy?" John begs him to let it go for Madison's sake. Brady calms some but feels guilty.



    In Nicole's room, Father Matt learns that Nicole had an epiphany tonight. The one thing that mattered to her has been in front of her eyes the whole time. In another room, Melanie tells Roman her story while Gabi breaks down in front of Chad. She blames herself. She's a horrible person! Chad hugs her. At the nurse's station, Maggie tells Daniel off for beating himself off. Daniel admits he has been using Nicole. Pushing her into an intense commitment because he doesn't like being alone. He decides he's not that guy anymore. In her room, Nicole tells Father Matt that she gave a man mixed signals and is done with playing games. He leaves and she decides to tell Daniel how she feels. In another room, Gabi admits she could have stopped this but didn't. At the nurse's desk, Daniel tells his mom he wants to be a man his daughter is proud of. Maggie is already proud. They hug. He goes to check on Nicole, who can leave at the end of the day. Nicole is about to discuss their relationship when Dr. Knapp walks in to tell Nicole she doesn't need bed rest anymore during this pregnancy. She also has to abstain from "any sexual activity whatsoever." She leaves and Nicole calls it a "buzzkill." Daniel tries to let Nicole down gently but she stops him. In Melanie's room, she stops Gabi from confessing and Chad leaves. Melanie is about to help a patient for Maxine when she realizes it's Andrew.



    Kate finds Lucas at the Coffee Bean. He turns down her request to help with the kids and they wonder how Sami will be able to get out of jail time for aiding and abetting. Lucas is ready to stop letting Sami drag him under the bus. He's done with protecting her. Done with her, even though he wants the best for her. Kate's happy to hear.



    EJ wanders the woods waiting for his contact until someone hits him over the head, knocking him out.


    Sneak peek!

    EJ wakes up to find he's a prisoner of Ian.

    Bo and Hope find Stefano alive!

    Nicole is ready to declare her love.

    Sami is going to don that little black dress just when you know who (barf) comes to arrest her. Ej should be the one seeing her in that lil black dress a rock

    Since today’s episode in the EJami department is even better than yesterday’s, I made another “Best of” list! I’m really sorry for those who don’t like this couple (…please skip if not interested or haven’t watched the show yet). I just can’t help myself sharing with the ones who love them!!

    Here are my Top 15 moments (I told you it was a better episode!!!):

    15 - The kiss… well I’m talking about the first of many!

    14 - How Sami’s “because” vibrates in EJ’s open mouth!!

    13 - Sami forgetting the name of the guy she was making dinner with the day before… and EJ providing the answer!!...

    12 - EJ calling Lucas a “distraction”!!!

    11 - Sami claiming to be TERRIFIED that it feels right being there with him…

    10 - “We owe that to the kids”… Oh those bloody children; it’s all their fault!!

    9 - “No, we owe it to ourselves…”!! Now that’s what I call being reasonable!!

    8 - The soft growling noise he makes when Sami tells him to go check his messages… (Didn’t James say he wrestles bears after breakfast??)

    7 - The rolling over the sofa and reaching for the laptop WITHOUT LEAVING HER LIPS…

    6 - The light in Sami’s eyes when hearing they might have found some exonerating evidence to clear EJ’s name…

    5 - The fear in Sami’s eyes when asking EJ never to say he might not come back…

    4 - Sami THROWING her arms around his neck for that other kiss…

    3 - The promise that there will be no more arguing… for now!...

    2 - All of EJ and Sami’s smiles throughout their making out or conversations…

    1 - The best delivered lines (drum roll here for the tie): EJ: “I like change…” Sami: “I’ll be waiting…” !!!!!!

    I like change too EJ and yep, we’ve been waiting a hell of a long time so why not a tiny little more?!!!
    It feels like heaven AGAIN.

    I take it the one that thinks he super FBI is snooping around. He needs to get his hankie out and clean his nose. He might get an eye full as well.



    Posted by makesmehappy at Friday, August 17 2012 11:10 AM

    Sorry.... it should be


    Posted by JorJayMom17 at Friday, August 17 2012 11:13 AM

    WOW, the steam coming off the screen, just WOW! I ❤EJ and Sami, how could you not? They're chemistry is explosive, I've never seen another couple on a soap with this much chemistry. Side note, I love those jeans
    I pray the writers just let it happen, they're sooooooo good together. But quick question, so if Nathan is Maggie's grandson and we now know Melanie is her granddaughter, Nathan and Melanie were cousins that whole entire time??? I like seeing vulnerable sides of Nicole, I don't like seeing her weak, but I feel for her while watching her in the hospital bed. I also didn't get the scene where Jen called JJ to tell him about his dad, who would call their child and break that kind of news over the phone to a kid???? I felt like that was stupid, hey honey sorry to wake you, but your dad died falling down an elevator shaft, like really? Also, with these new found parents, why is it so easy for Daniel call Maggie mom or even Melanie with Daniel and Carly, she was calling them mom and dad like a week after she found out they were her biological parents. It is just weird to me how comfortable they get.

    Someone said Sami and Rafe are not divorced, is EJ and Nicole divorced. I know they have the drive thru things, pretty sure in Salem, so maybe it is all said and done and it was so quick we didn't see it.

    Posted by allmylovingdays at Friday, August 17 2012 11:42 AM

    I hated seeing EJ get conked on the head once again. and zerohero coming in just I can't stop saying it BUZZZZZKILLLLL

    Posted by longliveejami75 at Friday, August 17 2012 11:46 AM

    Loving the show, loving the comments, you ladies rock!!!

    Makesmehappy your top 15 of today show is making me want to leave work early and watch today's episode. Bearigan you comments about why we love EJami so much was so beautifully said!

    I haven't watched today, but yesterday was a really good start....EJami had me so hyped up, I watched them in slow mo, and the chemistry, intensity, and expressions between those two is more explosive than the Daysaster!!!!

    I can't wait.....

    Posted by longliveejami75 at Friday, August 17 2012 11:49 AM

    I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think Maggie had any kids... if that's the case, Melanie and Nathan are not related.
