Spoilers And Shockers

[worleybird]

They played the NBC promo "WHO...KILLED...ANDRE" during our local 11am news here in Chicago. About 5 minutes before Days was to start. This was before his first "I swear I'll kill you" threat. Talk about spoilers.

In my dream world, it would be Vivian, with Andre as Uncle Arthur. But I suspect they're going to be busy with other matters.

I always adored Paul Lynde's Uncle Arthur :)  There is a part of me that wants Eric in that role--he is doing such a good job counseling JJ, he needs to help Will out too :)

[worleybird]

On Wednesday's episode, I noticed they made a point of the camera getting a shot of Gabi's coat on the hanger and then back to Abigail and her VERY similar dress. So the murderer will probably grab Gabi's coat. Someone will be seen running from the murder site and Gabi and/or Abigail will be accused/on trial for the murder.

I really hope they don't kill off Viv. I forgot how great she is. 

[worleybird]

They reshowed the Gabi's coat hanging scene at the beginning of today's show and also the 3 wigs on the shelf. You know one of those wigs will be worn by whoever the murderer is.

Maybe the murderer IS the coat, or covering for his ascot.  Or socks, could be socks, they can be quick to anger.

And let's not rule out Andre's underwear......his boxers may have just been pushed past the point of no return....trying to pin the whole thing on a frock.

The Salem PD will not rest till this is solved!

Ah yes, their man-in-a-can plan, the same one Tony apparently had.

Canned muzak and canned food at the reception, cans of Diet Coke and Mountain Dew, ending with canned remains, all for 79.95 with a coupon.

Just ask Anna.

Did they actually recover Stefano's "body" though?  There was the whole thing about not knowing he was dead immediately since Rafe tried to make it look like he went on a trip.

And who would even go to Stefano's funeral, unless, say, they gave out swag bags and free fake DNA kits?  What would an appropriate hymn be, other than "Ding Dong, the Witch is Dead"?  

[DisneyBoy]

Rafe and Hope tried to bury the body in some building that was being demolished. Andre got there in time to find the hidden body, see the hand and take Stefano's ring...and then get trapped in the explosion. He emerged with his nasty scar and the body was presumably blown to bits or squished by the rubble.

It was only last December that Shane and Steve started talking about a body. It was new information that any of Stefano's remains were located and buried. Then we heard Shawn talk about how he hadn't stayed with the DNA sample the entire time and how that meant the body wasn't really Stefano.

...and then we got Steve and Shane's insane plot, where it was revealed they had dug up "the body" (again - how was there even a full body left after the explosion?!) and moved it to another grave to replace it with the body of someone else, so the DNA wouldn't match and they could claim Stefano was "alive" again.

...which he ended up indeed being...somehow.

If Hope and Rafe never took their eyes off Stefano after she shot him, then that means his body was dragged to the building. Was it smuggled out before the explosion?

Three years of story....no clear narrative.

Chad cared about Stefano enough to want someone to pay for his murder. I would think if there was a burial, he would have attended.

Wonder who will get his ring? Will Chad take it from Andre's hand?

And the lie is so many ways of stupid it's not worth counting.  She's going to give birth to a baby who, going by her lies, will be 2 months premature and she thinks nobody's gonna notice?

She fits the Salem PD perfectly, though, being a bona fide IDIOT.

Actually I think going by her lies, the baby will be six weeks late. Two months premature happens. JJ will know something is fishy when the baby isn't born in August like he's expecting.

Unless, she induces labor. I know it is far out there, but, Lani has shown that she has obsessive qualities.. I think that she will miscarry. Too many people know her secret. Had she been able to pull off her lie for several months, with nobody the wiser.. It would have been interesting to see how far she would go, to sustain her lie..

Right!  I had that so backwards I might have had Lani's brain there for a minute!

[DisneyBoy]

Could one of the spoilers be that Stefan gets involved with Abby, only she ties them both to a bed and sets it on fire...and Lani investigates only to also be consumed in the blaze...?

 

I'd watch the heck out of that.

That's what Ron had Stacy Morasco planning to do on OLTL, she and her (infinitely more entertaining) co-conspirator Kim tried to force Schuyler - who thought he was the baby daddy - to induce her with oxytocin a month early so she could pass Fish's baby off as Rex's.  But Schuyler balked at the last minute and then Stacy ended up going into labor prematurely after being kidnapped by Mitch Laurence.  It was a whole thing.

I thought of that too.  Remember the day EVERYONE was dreaming, maybe someone is still asleep. Abby probably, since she's so obsessed with Andre, and she keeps having that recurring dream about finding Andre's body. 

I keep thinking that 

Spoiler

Abby will probably have DID & be the murderer. Sure looked like her in the video footage ...black wig, stole Gabi's coat & key card. Having such an over the top reaction to Andre's death (compared to other family members). It's like there is golden innocent Abby & dark dangerous murderer Abby. I mean it's not like she hasn't had mental instability & murderous rages before *cough Ben cough* (And RC likes his young women with DID...just ask OLTL's Jessica Buchanan.)

In March. I think that he will be for Sonny..

I think that Ron dropped a lot of anvils last week. He had Justin saying that Will will remember and that Sonny has to move on... Once Sonny does that, Will will remember and will want Sonny back.  

[TeeVee329]

Sure, that's a possibility too.  Although I find that prospect to be the most boring personally.

This is Ron. I have never been impressed with him. He writes a parody of a soap... I do think that he loves the genre, but, he relies on gimmick and events, not enough on characters and what makes them tick as individuals, using their history, to drive story in the present.. He relies on history that fits his agenda at the moment.  Sami's scheme to make Will remember should have had more consequences to the Sami/Will dynamic.  He resolved their conflict too soon.  I understand that the actress who plays Sami could not stay long, but, he could have had Sami leave heartbroken over Will's rejection. It would have made their reunion so much sweeter, when Will regains his memory.

Will's return has been all about Paul and not enough of Will reconnecting with his daughter, his siblings, Caroline and the rest of the Brady family.  Will could have reflected on what he lost, as a result of Susan. He could have had a hard time reconnecting with Sonny and everybody's expectations of him as Will.  Ron rushes things and does not play necessary beats to make a story richer and nuanced. Ron could have used Will's amnesia to finally have Will explore his sexuality without the constraints of the Wilson relationship or his one night stand with Paul.

Eh, I didn't need to sit through another soap coming out story.  Paul and Will playing "Hardy Gays" is much more fun, IMO.

I did not say a coming out story. Will having a sexual life could have been fun and different. He is a young, nice looking gay man. I don't understand why the show cannot have him explore that..

[TeeVee329]

My mistake, I thought by "explore his sexuality", you meant him again coming to terms with being gay.  But didn't you also say you were looking forward to Will getting his memories back and going after Sonny?

I do agree it's high time to mix another guy in with these three, which is why I asked about GR's first air date.  I was actually thinking it'd be funny if GR went on a first date with all three of them only to have them each bitch about another person in their triangle, heh.  I mean, Kyle did spend his first date with Nick talking about Fish.
