So EJ is remembering seeing Melanie the night of his beating. What do you all think he's going to do to her?
I was all set to fast forward through Stefano and EJ in the hospital. But I got engrossed when EJ told Stefano that he doesn't think it was a random beating, but rather an all-out attack on the familia.

I liked the scene at the end of Thursday's show when EJ dropped the bomb that he figured out that it was Brady who beat him up. Melanie did a good job of trying to look noncommittal. She was channeling the Little Sis character from True Grit.

I'm a bit confused by EJ's actions. He tells Stefano that no matter who it is, he will not retaliate. But when he's alone with Melanie, he looks so malevolent that it's impossible to believe that he's not going to kill Brady. What exactly are we supposed to think is going to happen?

EJ can say he won't retaliate. All he has to do is let it slip to his Fatha and the goons will take care of the rest.

It's hardr to believe EJ won't retaliate.One poster in another thread said something about Ej's gone so far into the dark that it's hard to believe anything he says,feels or does.None of it has been real before,why should it be now?

I thought the reason EJ didn't tell Stefano it was Brady who beat him and said he wasn't going to retaliate was because he wants to hurt Brady himself....he doesn't want pop doing it his way, OJ, oops I mean EJ, wants the personal satisfaction of doing it himself....EJ, is already getting physically violent with Melanie.....his 20 minutes of regret is over.....

I loved Friday's scenes between EJ and Melanie. Good drama.
I really liked that they acknowledged history when EJ said that he and Melanie have tangled before, referring, I assume to the biofuel project that she was trying to sell him 3 years ago.
I thought James Scott did some fine acting in that scene and I really liked seeing him trying to act cool as a cucumber and in control. When Dario broke into the scene -- it really felt like he broke in. Misplaced and unconvincing heroism. It reminded me of the scene in Back to the Future when George McFly tells Biff to get his damn hands off of Lorraine. I'll bet the actor had been studying those tapes.

I am not sure how I feel about him remembering it was Brady...I'm worried about this.

It felt, to me, like Dario was lurking outside the door, waiting for his cue. Then he burst in like a madman. Terribly acted on his part! But EJ and Melanie were really good, IMO. Both tried to quietly surmise what the other knew, but trying not to give too much away. I thought they did great. Oh, and EJ can throw me down on a bed anyday!  |
