Episode: #9590
Tape Date: 6/10/03
Director: Roger W. Inman
Lucas and Sami are caught making nice-nice (by HIS mom and HER
dad, no less!), Shawn wants an explanation from Belle, Nicole and
Brady have a night out at the Blue Note as Bo and Hope show what
teamwork is all about. (IMO, Sami/Lucas fans as well as Bo/Hope
fans want to be sure to see this one!)
At The Blue Note
Shawn and Belle sit to talk as he tries to explain why he was
there with Maya. He says that he saw her following Philip to the
docks and then when Maya showed up, he called her to meet him as
a distraction. But Shawn wants to know why Belle was even there
to begin with. She tries to explain that she overheard Philip on
the phone talking about going there and she decided to follow him
(uh, Belle, that's what I call being NOSEY! ;-) But Shawn is
upset that she ended up in danger and he wants the truth,
strongly suspecting she is hiding something from him. She finally
admits that she isn't telling him everything. About that time
Brady pulls up a chair and sits down to chat. But Belle pretty
much tells him to get lost and he takes the not-so-subtle hint
and leaves them alone. Shawn begins to needle her again and she
tells him that she found out something about Philip and that he
isn't your normal marine. Shawn wants more details, but she holds
true to her promise to Philip and won't tell him anymore. Shawn
is still upset that she is keep secrets from him, but doesn't
blame her, so they kiss. Belle brings up Maya and her dislike for
her. She says she never understood the term "barracuda"
until now and talks about how she keeps throwing herself at her
boyfriend. Shawn likes the sound of that and they kiss.
Brady and Nicole arrive (hmmm, I don't see Nico anywhere, Victor
must be softening up on her ;-) He is talking to the bartender as
she gets a call on her cell. It's Larry (saying it's Mr. Ed
calling and making horse sounds, LOL). He asks if she forgot
about him and asks why she didn't invite him along. They banter
back and forth (funny stuff). She tells him to just kill her
husband as Brady overhears that part. She covers, saying it's a
contractor that is doing some work at the mansion and if they
don't finish, it will kill Victor. She returns to her call as
Larry begins making a list of food and wine he wants her to bring
him. He then does his best lip-smacking impression of Hanibal
Lector (ROFL, I just LOVE him). She tells him he is crazy and
hangs up on him.
At The Hospital
Lucas is sitting with Sami on the bed as he comforts her. Kate
and Roman come barging in and both are shocked to see them. Lucas
nervously tries to explain, saying it is about Will. But neither
of their parents believe it for a minute. Lucas goes out into the
hall, with Kate right on his heels, yapping like a guard dog.
Roman stays with Sami, asking what he can do for her. He offers
to take her home tomorrow, go to the store for her, etc. (I know
this is crude, but wouldn't it be funny if she asked him to go to
the store and buy her a box of tampons? Sorry, I couldn't resist
that one, but a man NEVER asks if he can go to the store for a
woman!!!) She writes on her whiteboard that she is fine on her
own. In the hall, Kate lights into Lucas with all fours, asking
if he has totally lost his mind. He tries to assure her that it
was only an innocent hug and assures her that he is NOT falling
for Sami. But Kate isn't stupid and continues to harass him,
reminding him of all the things that Sami has done to him in the
past. Inside, Roman brings up the fact that Tony and Lucas keep
visiting and she writes that she hates Tony and does NOT want to
see him. Roman asks about Lucas and she writes "he is Will's
father". In the hall, Lucas has reached the boiling point
and begins yelling at Kate, just as Roman comes out. Roman
suggests that they go to the Blue Note to relax. After they
leave, an agitated Lucas storms into Sami's room accusing her of
being up to something. He angrily tells her that he is NOT
falling for it this time and storms out, leaving her confused.
After he is gone, she throws her whiteboard at the door. In the
hallway, his conscious gets the better of him and he begins to
feel bad. He goes back to her room and watches her through the
window. He has flashbacks of when she was on death row and he
saved her life, then of the events at DiMansion leading up to her
accident. (Theses scenes highlight the BEST of Ali and Bryan, I
forgot how powerful those execution scenes were!) He continues to
watch her as she turns to him, crying. (*) He goes inside and
apologizes for what happened earlier and for his behavior. He
says it is because he is having confused feelings and that the
truth is that he loves her. He sits on the bed with her and they
begin kissing, She pulls off his shirt as they get really hot and
heavy and he begins to undress her as well. We hear a voice say
"Mr. Roberts". (Now, go back to the * and start over,
for yes, all of this was only a daydream! Hey, I fell for it
hook, line and sinker!!!) Lucas snaps back to reality as the
voice is that of a nurse, asking if he is okay. She goes into
Sami's room and retrieves her whiteboard as Lucas watches through
the window. Sami sees him out there, but he turns, and with his
head down, leaves.
Back To The Blue Note
Kate and Roman arrive at the Blue Note and see Shawn and
Belle there. But they decide not to bother them as they take a
corner table. Nicole is at the bar chatting it up with the
bartender. Kate and Roman discuss finding Lucas and Sami together
and both decide that neither of them are saints and it would be
best if they kept them apart. Brady returns to the bar as Nicole
talks about how the Blue Note needs a face lift and what she
would do. Brady likes the sound of her ideas and offers her a job
changing its image to attract a younger more upscale clientele.
She gets really excited, but knows that Victor would never go for
it. Brady doesn't understand what the problem is and offers to
intercede on her behalf. They talk about the menu, lighting, etc.
and then she asks him for a $200 advance (to buy a gun?). He
hands it over, a bit bewildered. Kate and Roman continue their
flirting and drinking (Kate seems a bit tipsy) as he says he
loves taking her out, but not nearly as much as he enjoys taking
her home. She asks ėmy place or yours?' He says his is closer so
they rush out of there.
Brady & Brady
Bo and Hope are chained up back to back on a chair as Jessie and
his gang say that they could shoot them, but it would be too
noisy and that they have a better way to take care of them. He
cranks up a car and leaves them to the carbon monoxide gas. After
they are gone, Hope asks Bo what is his plan? He clearly doesn't
have one as they struggle to get free. Bo comes up with the plan
and tells her that they should bounce up and down on the chair
which they do. Bo jokes about it possibly being their last dance
as she asks him if he wants to tango. Eventually, they get in
tandem and their combined weight breaks the chair and they tumble
to the floor. They roll back and forth until they get over to the
car and are able to get on their feet. (BTW, all of this looks
really painful to me, some truly physical scenes for Peter and
Kristian, and they do a GREAT job. Kudos to them!) Still chained
back to back, Bo leans over and carries her on his back over to
the grease guns. He has her jump on a pedal which shoots oil all
over their hands and backs. Hope talks about how sore she is and
how gross that is and Bo comments that if they weren't in danger,
it would be kinky (LOL!) They are finally able to slip out of
their chains and rush outside, only to find that their brand-new
super SUV vehicle is gone. Bo is furious and says that they made
a HUGE mistake, they just made it personal.
Preview:
Mimi hands Rex a CD, telling him that she downloaded the info
from the hospital's mainframe. She says she hopes that the info
he needs AND his mother is on there, John (to Marlena) "I
come to say goodbye". (Marlena) "I won't say goodbye,
I'll say that I love you. (John) "I love you too". Sami
walks into DiMansion (looking mighty fine) and says to Lucas:
"Hi, I found my voice, now where's yours?" (definitely
a daydream). Brady, Nicole and Victor are sitting around
the table as we see a shot of Larry in the window. Brady says
"Oh my God, Larry Welch" as we see the shocked reaction
from Nicole.

Episode: #9591
Tape Date: Various
Director: Herb Stein
Lucas and Sami both have each other on their minds as she returns
home to her apartment, Tony and John prepare for their yacht
adventure, but only after Tony stops by Sami's with a gift and
Victor gives his approval for Nicole helping at the Blue Note.
DiMera Mansion
Lucas is working in Tony's study and thinking about Sami...
as we see her walk in looking sexy, telling him she found her
voice and asking where his is. (This guy's got it bad!) But it's
Cassie entering, asking if he's okay.
Elsewhere Tony gives Bart the tube Maya gave him, to send for
analysis. Bart asks about the "light saber" and Tony
corrects him with "laser" (LOL). He dispatches Bart as
Rex enters, asking what's in the vial Bart had. They talk about
Rex not needing to know right now and about Cassie and Rex being
his children. Rex's concern they aren't a burden on him. Tony
assures him he's happy to have them and after Rex warned him
about flying with the laser, he (Tony) will personally escort the
laser on his yacht to South America for testing there. Rex tells
him how powerful the prototype was and how it caused the
earthquake. This surprises Tony, but you can see how proud of Rex
he is.
Back in the study, Lucas is feeling amorous and tells Cassie
she's beautiful and kisses her as Tony and Rex walk in. Tony asks
what's this. Tony tells Cassie he's going to be gone for a while
and asks to speak with Lucas alone. He asks him to keep a close
eye on Cassie while he's gone being she's been in trouble (yeah,
being arrested for prostitution is a little trouble..don't stay
around to help Tony). Lucas mentions to Tony that Sami is home
from the hospital and he'll be taking Will over there tonight
after camp. Tony's concerned about Sami being home alone.
Thinking Tony's worried about Sami suing him for what happened,
Tony tells him it only happened in his home, but was Sami's own
fault. Lucas figures Sami will blame him for what happened (doubt
it the way she was cuddling up to you in the hospital, haha), but
Tony tells Lucas Sami can't see what's in front of her own eyes.
Later Cassie pours Lucas a tonic, asking what's wrong. Lucas
tells her he's not afraid of Tony, but of hurting her being she's
so young. Little Ms. Innocent assures him that won't happen as
she grabs for his belt. We later see him recinching his belt as
she tells him she wants to be with him. He leans in for a kiss
and she tells him they can't do it there, but later will.
Seductively she tells him he'll regret it if he tries to run away
from her, but agrees to be together later.
Mimi arrives with a cd with hospital records she downloaded (Salem
Hospital has definitely got to hire a computer person to
safeguard their records!!!). He starts to do so, but takes a Mimi
break as they kiss on his bed while the computer does it's thing.
Afterward they tell each other they love each other after making
love (not to be remiss, but why aren't we seeing Jack and
Jennifer, the newlyweds, doing the same????????) as the computer
signals it's done. Rex looks at the results in surprise as Meems
asks if there's a match.
Sami's Home
Marlena's got Sami home to her apartment. She offers to make her
pancakes, but Sami is too excited to eat (and knows her mom's
cooking probably, haha). Marlena orders her to rest as per
discharge instructions. Sami writes something on her white board
and Marlena tells her NO. Sami had written TONY, but finishes
with WILL PAY. Marlena agrees, but not by Sami. She's to focus on
getting better and around those who love her. She offers her food
again (maybe having a kitchen in sight is a good thing for
Marlena as she never cooks at the Penthouse, LOL!), but Sami
indicates she's tired (yeah, right). Marlena informs her she'll
be back in a few hours to check on her. She writes Lucas all over
her white board as she paces, picking up Will's ball and glove
with a smile. She looks at Will's picture, missing her son and
tears up.
Kiriakis Mansion
It's breakfast time at the Kiriakis mansion as Nicole breaks the
news about her new job offer from Brady. Brady's shakes his head,
wanting to have handled it himself. Victor doesn't agree, saying
it's part of the Titan holdings. As they're arguing about it,
Larry pops his head from the other side of the window and both
Nicole and Brady see him. Brady say's "it's Larry Welch".
He was only referring to the newspaper headlines saying CONVICTED
MURDERED KILLED IN FREAK ACCIDENT. Nicole acts surprised, but
Victor knew, hoping he stays dead (LOL, he's lived in Salem long
enough no one is guaranteed dead there). Nicole heads out for her
morning ride and gives Larry the $200 she got from Brady to buy a
gun to kill Victor while Brady and Victor talk about his not
letting Nicole work. Victor says he wants Nicole home with him in
the evening, not at a night club. Victor tells him home and
business life should remain separate, citing him and Kate and
Brady and Chloe's experiences as an example. He asks why Brady
cares about Nicole (hmmm, because in real life she's his wife and
they both work and live together???). Brady builds Victor up by
telling him how he always respected him and even though he knew
he didn't like Chloe, kept his feelings to himself when she was
sick. Brady confides about his dream that Isabella told him she
was worried about Victor. Victor tells Brady he's a wise young
man. Brady asks then why won't he let Nicole help him then?
Victor changes his mind and tells Brady he can have Nicole's help
at the Blue Note then and to go rush and tell her the good news.
Brady rushes outside (as Larry ducks behind a convenient shrub)
to see (we hear) her drive off (must be a vroom vroom sportscar
judging by the sound).
He reminds her he can't leave the barn to get a gun. She asks
what she should do as he kids about her being a virgin. He says
there's a guy he owes a favor to and now she'll owe that favor.
Basic Black
At Basic Black, John and Philip talk about Belle's discovery to
their being spies. Philip figures Belle's involved with Shawn's
working for Maya/Mickey. John feels it all comes back to Tony.
TEK arrives in a suit with the lab analysis report. He reports
both Maya's ship and Tony's yacht are getting ready to go to
South America. Philip hopes his father's not involved and John
hopes it's only his brother that is as well.
Marlena's Office
John arrives, asking about Sami. He hates to do this to her right
now, but has to leave. He doesn't want her to be involved, and
kisses her goodbye. She says she won't say goodbye, just that she
loves him. He tells her he'll be home as soon as he can, not
knowing when that will be.
Back To Sami's
Tony arrives and she sees him in the peephole as he says he has a
surprise for her. She lets him in reluctantly and gives her a
jewelry box. Her mouth drops as she opens it to see a diamond on
a gold chain (necklace?) as an apology. He didn't mean for what
happened to go that far. He tells her she's more valuable then
that diamond and is herself a diamond in the rough. He came to
tell her he's leaving town for a while. She writes that she can't
accept it. He won't take it back, but tells her he can't
apologize for everything his father did to her in her childhood
as he wasn't part of that, but he forgives her for what she did
to his sister. He hopes to hear similar words from her some day
when she can talk again and bids her good health as he leaves. He
smiles to himself in the hallway as she smirks holding the
necklace.
Marlena returns to check on Sami. She offers to bring some
eggplant Parmesan for her from Tuscany for dinner (yum), but Sami
writes she's having dinner with Lucas and Will. Marlena's
concerned, thinking Lucas won't let Sami have Will alone. Sami
indicates she has no problem being with Lucas. Marlena tells Sami
that Lucas is rejoicing in her misery (I haven't seen that, have
you?) and needs help. Sami writes that she is going forward (Brandon
who?). Marlena tells Sami it's okay to forgive Lucas, but don't
trust him. When Tony returned to Salem he asked her (Marlena) to
be around him as she could make a difference in his life. That
was a lie and look what happened. He ended up hurting Sami. She
doesn't know if she can forgive him for that and doesn't want him
(Tony/Lucas or both) around her again to hurt her. She offers to
get dinner for the 3 of them, but Sami writes she doesn't need a
babysitter as Marlena laughs.
The Pier
Nicole meets up with the punk (think it's the same guy who Bo and
Hope were looking for, but not sure. Brady followed her there (he
IS fast to get in his car and catch up!!) and sees her talking to
the guy.
DiMera Yacht
Even though the yacht is still docked, Bart has a queasy stomach
and wants to leave, LO (boy, can I relate!). Tony orders him to
watch over Rex and Cassie before releasing him. Bart rushes to
get Tony's bags so he can get off the yacht as the captain asks
if he needs anything. Tony and the captain both walk rather
quickly out of a cabin as Tony locks the door. John comes out of
another door, in his wet scuba gear (that won't drip I'm sure)..and
unlocks the same cabin door to investigate. We see TEK and Philip
talking at Basic Black about how dangerous this mission is and
hope that this mission is the end of Tony DiMera, not John Black.
Preview:
Sami found her voice in a bell. She's manically waving and
ringing it at Kate (LOL) as Roman walks in asking his usual, what
da hell is going on in here... Nicole asks Brady if he was
following her and he asks Nicole if she's in the habit of buying
presents from strange guys in alley's (as we see the gun in her
purse)... Lucas peels off Cassie's clothes and is down to her bra
on the bed. Mimi asks Rex if he knows this woman (his
mother) and he says his mother is...

Tape Date: Various
Director: Albert Alarr
Sami gets visitors, while Lucas & Cassie get it on; the
Bounty Hunters get a lead, and Nicole's mission is partially
successful.
Brady Pub
Bo & Hope are playing w/Zack in a booth, so happy to be with
their son. They talk of how their teamwork got them out of their
scrape last nite, but worry about leaving their sons parentless,
with this dangerous job. Victor comes in with the newspaper,
showing them the headlines about Larry's demise. They are rather
uncomfortable with the news the body was burned beyond
recognition. Hope takes Zack for a play date with his gramma (awww,
c'mon, a PLAY DATE???) & Victor takes the opportunity to
mention to Bo that he heard Bo was selling the Fancy Face, and
would be more than happy to finance him in his new endeavor. Bo
refuses, says the Fancy Face has been sold, and doesn't need any
money. Victor tells Bo he is so proud of him and leaves. Hope
returns, Bo tells her of the sale, and tho she is not happy he
did it w/o her, she agrees it was best. Bo says he did not tell
Victor about the SUV, as Vic has his own brand of justice (ROTFL).
He does not want to report the theft to ins. Company, as no one
will hire them after learning they were ripped off like that. (
Hey Bo, Hope, here's a job for ya, go find Jack & Jennifer -
aren't you at all curious as to why you haven't seen them in such
a long time?) His cell rings, and it is little buddy, Tommy
Thompson (Now I am in hysterics, Tommy Thompson is the former
governor of Wisconsin, my state, and is now in Washington D.C.
serving as a Secretary in the Presidential Cabinet). So Tommy (he
had that parking job at Echelon, I think) tells Bo that lots of
great wheels are coming thru, and the word is that Bo's SUV is
for sale at a hefty price. Bo & Hope are on their way.
At the bar, Maya berates Sal for having lunch instead of
following Tony. He tells her of Tony's yacht trip, and she is not
happy, claiming she is the only double dealer. LOLOL. She
whispers to him what she wants him to do, and he takes off. He
returns later, saying it is all taken care of. She smiles, saying
Tony will no longer be any trouble.
Sami's Apartment
Sami is carefully setting the table as Will comes in, complaining
that he doesn't like mousse, and can't she make something else.
The doorbell rings, and in comes Roman & Kate. Will asks to
visit friend Jorge until dinner time, and leaves. Roman says he
figures her mother has probably filled the place with flowers (hmmm,
don't see any) so he brought her something. She can just call her
mom or her dad, and ring the bell he gives her. His cell phone
goes off, he takes it to another room, giving Kate the
opportunity to note the special fold in the napkins, and table
set for three. She starts giving Sami a hard time about Lucas,
causing Sami to pick up that bell, and energetically ring it
right in Kate's face. Roman comes in with his "What da Hell"
is going on, breaks it up. Knock, Knock at the door. Tis Mimi,
who babbles on and on about Rex looking for Cassie, who was w/Lucas.(the
look on Sami's face is priceless!) She leaves, and Kate quickly
rubs it in that Sami has been stood up. She & Roman leave a
sad faced Sami on the sofa, and out in the hall, bemoan the fact
Lucas is working for a DiMera.
In The Alley
Nicole is sealing the deal with Larry's friend for the gun, and
then insists on a silencer. He tells her it is a standard 38, and
no one told him about a silencer, but maybe her bodyguard can
help her. She turns to find Brady, thanks the other guy, and
berates Brady for following her. He wonders if she is buying
drugs, wanting to look in her purse, but she wiggles out,
claiming she was getting a special gift for Victor. He tells her
of getting the O.K. from Victor for the job at the Blue Note,
which makes her very happy. She starts tomorrow nite. He leaves.
Nicole brings the gun to Larry, who notes there are no bullets.
They argue about that fact for a bit, as she cannot just go buy
some, they could be traced back to her. He tells her Victor must
have an arsenal of guns, (she says they are locked up, good for
Vic) but he says there must be a stray bullet around somewhere.
Later we see her searching thru various desk and table drawers,
as Brady comes in, catching her. They spar a bit, as Victor comes
in, wanting to know what is going on.
Dew Drop Inn
Lucas & Cassie decide they need someplace more private than
the mansion, and his apt. is out cause of Will. We next see them
entering a room at what Lucas calls the No Tell Motel. ROTFL.
Cassie wants a nicer room, and Lucas realizes it is her lst time,
but no one can see them. They have a drink, and begin their make-out
session. (This is truly EEWW ville).
Meanwhile, Rex is at his computer (no afterglow for him), staring
in astonishment at the results of the DNA matchup. His mother is
KATE ROBERTS! Mimi begins to recite his now really extended
family, all the brothers and sisters, Eric, Sami, Carrie, Austin,
Lucas, & then there's Billie but Rex freaks at the mention of
Lucas's name, realizing Cassie has been on the make for Lucas. He
tries to call her, but Cassie has turned off her cell phone, so
as not to be interrupted. Rex tries telepathy, and tho Cassie
gets the fact Rex is trying to reach her, she ignores it. Rex
gets a call he thinks is Cassie, but is only Daddy Tony. Mimi
goes to check Lucas's apt., then returns saying Lucas is not
there. Bart pops in, mentioning that Cassie went out with Lucas.
Meanwhile, Cassie & Lucas are stripping, and going at it hot
& heavy. Rex "sees" a match book cover with the
name Dew Drop Inn on it, asks Meems, who knows where it is. They
race out the door over to the motel, and to room 4 (Rex "saw"
that, too). Mimi is worried about busting in on strangers, but
Rex kicks the door open, and Mimi says Oh, my God, as we all see
Lucas & Cassie in bed, with the normal L-shaped sheet over
them. (meaning we see Lucas to the waist, but Cassie is covered
to nearly her shoulders, LOLOL)
Tony's Yacht
John is trying to open a padlock, when Tony comes along with the
Captain, saying he wants to review their course. John hides, Tony
& the Captain enter, and Tony says he wants no problem with
the Coast Guard, as he has some delicate cargo on board, would
rather not be subjected to any searches. Bart brings in the
luggage, assures Tony he will keep an eye on the kids, and leaves.
The Captain reassures Tony, leaves, and Tony looks thru some
folder. John is frustrated in the closet, but a siren goes off,
and Tony leaves. John quickly leaves the room, too. He calls TEK,
telling him Tony has a piece of very high tech equipment, may be
key to whole operation. Later, John overhears Tony talking to Rex
about the laser, diamonds, etc. The Captain brings in a basket of
fruit, the card says it is from Bart. Tony smiles, as he takes an
apple, and walks away taking a huge bite from it. (Kept seeing
Snow White taking that bite from the apple, lolol) The camera
zooms in on the basket, and we hear tick, tick, and see a red
light flashing.
Preview:
Lucas yelling at Sami about being a liar, manipulator, mentioning
all the changed paternity tests, as she throws a pillow at him,
Brady asking Belle if she'd like to live there, and she is
laughing, saying yes, yes, yes (the loft), Cassie telling Rex she
can have any man she wants and Rex saying "Not Lucas...dammit,
Cassie, you just slept with your half- brother". Cue a
shocked look on Cassie's face, fade to black and white and the
credits roll.
