Gabi (Read 178 times)

[MrsM]

EJ tells Gabi about the plea deal and urges her to take it. Julie arrives at the station and asks Hope to talk to Gabi. EJ advises against it but Gabi wants to talk to Julie. Julie lays the guilt trip on Gabi and asks Gabi why. Gabi says she can't really explain it and says that she just couldn't take it anymore.

EJ says that if they go to trial the DA will dig up any dirt she can find on Gabi. Melanie and Chad could even be called to testify.

Julie told Gabi that she hopes Gabi hates herself.

I do wish that someone would tell Julie all of the horrible things that Nick has done, like trying to rape Gabi, threatening to send her to prison, and telling Will he'd never raise his own daughter. I know it probably wouldn't make a difference but I just wish someone would confront her about what a monster Nick truly was and how coming back to Salem was his second chance and he blew it.

Gabi had the option of not seeing Julie but she didn't want to hide from the people she had hurt. I think facing Julie, no matter how unpleasant, was a huge step forward for Gabi.

Just a word on Julie's behalf. She just returned from NY where she dealt with the family's grief. She probably feels she is the only one in Salem who can stand up for Nick. Maggie remembers the promising boy who could have done great things but I think she understands (partially) what Nick had become. Maggie saw a little of his behavior first hand. Not to excuse Julie's words to Gabi but I can understand her feelings.

I was disappointed by the "confrontation" between Julie and Gabi. It was a let-down. Julie is usually over-the-top dramatic, but today she was low key. She barely said anything. I was kind of looking forward to seeing her rage at Gabi. This time, she would have been justified.

EJ let Gabi and Julie meet? Sister, it's time to retain a new lawyer. Hope you have Justin's phone number handy...

He was against it but Gabi agreed to see her. Hope stayed in the room with them.

Gabi has shown a lot of maturity since making her confession and facing Julie took a lot of courage.

Hope did not initially want Julie visiting Gabi, so perhaps controlling her rage was something Julie had to agree to in order for Hope to allow it. I'm glad that it played out the way that it did. As weepy as Gabi has been the last few episodes, I don't think I would have enjoyed watching Julie go crazy on her.

Did EJ ever say how many years Gabi would have to serve in prison under this plea agreement?

Julie was just as blind as Nick if she thought Gabi wanted that relationship. All Julie was doing was taking Nick at his word about it. I do understand Julie's feeling and she's still grieving and coming from the rest of the family and their grief. I wish Gabi could have been a bit more articulate about Nick's control over her, been able to share some detail of Nick getting physical or irate when she tried to assert herself or anything that could have helped Julie open her eyes to how troubled Nick really was.

I hated that last line to Gabi about hating herself. This is the first time Gabi shouldn't hate herself. She's finally standing up and doing the right thing and accepting responsibility for her actions. She's finally finding her backbone and I don't like the idea of Julie's comment taking that away from her.

Julie wasn't around enough to realize what was happening between Nick and Gabi. Everyone seemed to be buying Gabi's act. She was pretty convincing.

[rockfordfosgate]

I think everyone could see that Gabi was being manipulated, but Julie couldn't...didn't want to...believe Nick would do that. Others did have more information than Julie did, but Julie still believed what Nick said about Gabi wholeheartedly.
