Performers of the Week:
Days of Our Lives’ Alison Sweeney & Dan Feuerriegel!
Since EJ’s return to Salem, we have been waiting for that EJami spark… and we got it this week! The couple is certainly a divisive one for fans but there is no denying that the characters have an appealing push and pull. Dan has continued to impress us every single week. And when EJ confronted Sami over her infidelity we were left with chills. You could feel his anger and heartbreak radiating through the screen. Alison, who is just an incredible actress, played Sami’s devastation with perfection. We don’t know what’s ahead for this on-screen pairing but we are excited to find out!
General Hospital’s Joyce Guy!
Joyce Guy has been such a wonderful addition to General Hospital! When Phyllis’ worst fear came true as her husband, Lenny, died, she was crushed. The immensely talented Joyce Guy delivered, in our humble opinion, the best scene of the week as Phyllis had one last moment with Lenny. Her anguished cry was emotionally shattering. We just hope GH finds a way to keep her on canvas going forward!

Days of Our Lives
Sami’s newfound happiness within her marriage was short-lived when EJ confronted her over her infidelity. While Lucas’ dreams of reuniting with Sami were diminished when she vowed not to give up on her marriage. However, Sami was not expecting to be taken by a masked person outside of Rafe’s home when she went to talk with Gabi about staying in the DiMera mansion. Ava got more than she bargained for when she found Rafe comforting Nicole over the end of her marriage. Gabi implicated step one in her plan to remove Philip from his role as CEO of Titan but Jake’s attempt to vie for the position over her may lead to some potential problems for the couple.
Jack reached his limit with Gwen’s antics when Steve revealed that she had been involved with Dr. Snyder’s drug dealings. Xander shocked them both when he covered for Gwen, taking the blame for Snyder’s death when they were confronted by Jack. Philip and Chloe worked through his jealousy over her and Brady. Allie and Claire were determined to stay quiet at the police station even though they were charged with aiding and abetting a kidnapping. Theo and Ciara’s loved ones worked hard to find the kidnapped Ciara. Paulina even offered up a lead-getting reward, which didn’t sit well with Lani. A non-starting car, an injured ankle, and some cold Chinese food later and Ciara was able to regain her memories while being trapped in the cabin with Ben. Theo and Shawn were able to track them down, finding them in each other’s arms.

Finn’s reputation was put on the line when Ridge wondered if this was set up but they quickly realized he was just as stunned as the rest of them.
