Johnny and Chanel - Monday (Read 107 times)

Awaiting their test results at the hospital...

Johnny: Well, I guess we can check being Geiger countered off the bucket list.
Chanel: Geiger countered? I’m not sure that’s a word.
Johnny: Yeah, I’m not so sure it’s a bucket list item either.

Chanel is sorry he had to go through all of this because of her. Johnny says this wasn’t because of her. But Chanel feels that if she had just trusted that he’d come back to the cabin like he said he would, and she wouldn’t have gone looking for him and gotten stuck between those rocks, then her mother wouldn’t have risked so much.

Johnny says all that matters is that she found her, even if it means he didn’t get to be her hero.

Chanel: Hey, you are my hero. You are strong, and loyal, and honest, and everything else that makes up a hero.

Plus, he makes her happier than she’s ever been.

Kayla comes in. Chanel has a badly sprained ankle. She should wrap it and keep off of it as much as possible. Chanel’s radiation levels are higher than Johnny and Julie’s because she spent more time with Paulina. They can go home, but if they feel any weakness, nausea, or anything else, they need to come back to get checked out.

Chanel: What a way to end a honeymoon. In the hospital, limping, radioactive.
Johnny: But the rest of it was perfect, though, right? I mean, Julie showing up as we were making out on the couch thinking the cabin was empty.
Chanel: Oye, yi, yi, yi. I had successfully blocked that out, so thanks for reminding me.

The cherry on top was Mama Paulina showing up and giving them radiation poisoning. Chanel jokes that at least Paulina got to drive a snow plow.

Johnny thinks they should head back to the cabin and give it another try, but Chanel says they should absolutely not.

In the hallway of the hospital, Johnny and Chanel slowly make their way out as he tries to help her walk.

Johnny: Well, I would say that we ran the gauntlet and came out the other side relatively unscathed. We spoke to my mother and waved at yours, through protective glass, of course.
Chanel: Yeah, let’s blow this popsicle stand.

Chanel worries about getting up the stairs to their bedroom. Johnny says he has a surprise, and she’s going to like this one.

Johnny brings Chanel to the Salem Inn. He carries her over the threshold. There are rose petals in a heart on the bed and Champagne waiting. Chanel wonders why he checked them in under Mr. & Mrs. John Doe. He says he didn’t want anyone to track them down. He also had his guitar delivered.

Chanel: Not only do I have the sexiest man in the world, but he also sings and plays the guitar.
Johnny: Yeah, I can also play Chop Sticks on the piano and Hot Crossed Buns on the recorder.
Chanel: He’s multi-talented.

Johnny plays and sings for Chanel.

Red flag that Chanel still has high radiation levels, and with all the sex they are having I'm certain a baby is coming that will be at risk thanks to Paulina's stupidity

I skipped Johnny's singing. It is not for me.

carolineleg, Yeah, between the newlyweds acting like newlyweds, and Paulina being so arrogant about having done the right thing despite putting everyone in danger, I'm betting Chanel will be headed back to the hospital after feeling ill and will find out that she's pregnant.

With that future radiation effect most likely to prop up at the worst moment (another dreadful baby storyline if it comes to pass) Johnny's wobbly voice and country guitar sent off the show in fine fashion. Bittersweet afterglow after all we just witnessed.

I'm relieved Chanel is okay, but I have a feeling this isn't the end of it.

I liked Johnny singing to Chanel even though I didn't much care for the song he chose. It was a nice way for the show to kill time, which is what they seem to be doing a lot of until the staff writers return.

A bit ashamed to admit it but I can't tell the difference in the writers. The show half sucks to me no matter who is putting pen to paper. Ha.

Although I am yearning for a big SWEEPING storyline that affects multiple characters. I would like to see Days think big again and come up with a juicy story and it would be great to see Jennifer and Jack back and yes bring back Lani and Paulina's ex Ray.  Crazy yet the guy was such a great actor, but they ruined his character with a Grand Guignol approach.

I still don't believe Ray is dead or Li. And bring back Abigail.  I'm rambling as usual.

And give Abe a NEW love interest. Shake things up dammit.
