The Melaswen Paradox (Read 329,660 times)

[mae00]

I'm with Kpatch. I think Charlie should have gotten the death penalty. I know not all states have that but in Charlie's case, they could make an exception. I'm glad that he was found guilty but I think this is far from over. I'm hoping he doesn't get out on a technicality. I have a feeling there will be some revenge taken somehow.

I'm glad the families can have some sort of closure now. They know who did it. As long as he's breathing, they may never fully find closure but at least they know.

Im am very happy with this outcome

Cant wait for more

TITAN
Philip sighed.
PHILIP: Cynthia, what are you doing here?
CYNTHIA: What, isn’t it enough to want to visit an old friend?
PHILIP: If I thought that that was all it was…
CYNTHIA: Look, my days of coming onto you are long over. Not that I wouldn’t try to, if I were single. I mean, you are still as foxy as ever. But, as it is, I’m happily married.
PHILIP: Right. So, what really brings you here?
CYNTHIA: A job interview.
Philip blinked.
PHILIP: A job interview?
CYNTHIA: That’s what I said.
PHILIP: You wanna work at Titan? You can’t be serious!
CYNTHIA: I am absolutely serious. You may or may not know this, Philip, but I’m a model now. And, as Titan is one of the biggest media companies in the area, I thought this would be a good place to look for a job.
PHILIP: Well, you’re looking in the wrong place, for a start. This is Titan’s corporate office, you’re looking for Titan Media, down on the sixth floor.
CYNTHIA: No, I know. But I thought a word with the boss might help my case along, if you know what I mean. I brought some headshots with me.
PHILIP: Yeah, nice try, but it doesn’t work like that. Go down to the sixth floor and try your luck. I can’t guarantee anything, but you’ll have a better shot there. You may want to come back tomorrow, though, they’re just about to go home for the evening.
CYNTHIA: You sure you don’t wanna just take a little peek?
PHILIP: Cynthia, I don’t wish to be rude, but I’m busy. I need to finish this up and get back home to my wife and daughter.
Cynthia sighed dramatically.
CYNTHIA: Fine, I guess I’ll be going, then. I have a feeling I’ll be seeing you again really soon, though, once I get a job here.
Cynthia winked and walked out.
PHILIP (under his breath): Good luck with that.

SAMI & LUCAS’ APARTMENT
Lucas was in the kitchen, cooking. He heard the front door open.
LUCAS: Be out in a sec!
He put a pan in the oven, then took off his oven mitts as he went into the living room. Allie had just walked in.
LUCAS: Hey, kid. Glad you could make it for dinner. Guess court let out just in time, huh?
Allie nodded.
LUCAS: Your Mom’ll be back in a little bit. She’s picking up Sydney from her friend’s house.
Allie didn’t say anything. Her shoulder shook slightly.
LUCAS: Allie, you okay?
Allie blinked hard. Lucas walked over to her.
LUCAS: What’s going on?
Allie let out a sob. Lucas wrapped his arms around her.

SHAWN-D & BELLE’S HOUSE
Shawn-D was on the phone.
SHAWN-D: All right, thanks for the update. Yep, see you tomorrow. Bye.
He hung up the phone and went into the living room. Belle had just gotten home.
SHAWN-D: Evening.
BELLE: Hey.
SHAWN-D: I’ve got some great news! Uncle Roman just called, Kevin corroborated my alibi, so I’m off the list of suspects for Maisy’s killer. Meaning that my suspension is over and it’s back to work for me.
BELLE: Oh, that’s great! I’m so glad for you!
SHAWN-D: Thanks.
BELLE: We’ve both gotten good news today, then.
SHAWN-D: Oh yeah? What’s yours?
BELLE: The trial’s over, and we won. Charlie’s going away for a long time.
SHAWN-D: Fantastic! So, we’re two for two on good news, then!
BELLE: Yep!
SHAWN-D: Well, this is great! I’ve been cleared to go back to work, and my superstar lawyer wife just won a huge case.
BELLE: I didn’t do that much, really. It was the jury’s decision. The evidence spoke for itself. Plus, Charlie kinda dug his own grave. I put him on the stand and he freely admitted to what happened.
SHAWN-D: I’m sure you had a lot to do with the jury’s decision.
Shawn-D and Belle put their hands on each other’s arms.
SHAWN-D: We should celebrate. What d’you say we go to that new place that just opened up on Birch?
BELLE: I would love that. But, to be honest, this trial’s wiped me out, and I’d kinda like to just stay in for the night.
SHAWN-D: Okay, no problem. Then how about you take a seat, I’ll order in for us, and you and I can spend a relaxing evening together?
BELLE: Now that sounds like a great idea to me.
Shawn-D and Belle kissed.
SHAWN-D: I love you, Mrs. Brady.
BELLE: I love you, Mr. Brady.

Aww sweet scene with Shawn and Belle. I hope they have a nice evening in with no interruptions. They deserve it after what they've been through.

I'm glad Lucas is there for Allie.

Nice try, Cynthia. I'm glad Philip put her in her place.

Great chapter André DiMera.

[Kpatch]

It's nice to see THE REAL Shawn and Belle, the ones who are in it forever.

I am enjoying seeing Cynthia trying to stir up trouble with Philip. At least she's not a psycho like Jan.

So glad Allie has her dad to lean on.

[tghca]

Cynthia is of course going to try to drive a wedge between Philip and Melanie never mind the fact that she's married to Jason. She can say she's happily married all she wants but what is to stop her from trying to have an affair with Philip?

I wonder if Victor will end up hiring Cynthia at Titan? Especially since he has final say on who works at Titan Media or who controls their media division? I wonder if the twins Jody and Vic if they are heading up Titan Media? Or is that Sonny's department?

Love that Shawn and Belle are getting some alone time...they have been getting it a lot. Are we sure Belle is not pregnant right now?

[fluffysmom]

I liked Shawn and Belle both having good news.

I wondered if Cynthia had a nude photo or lingerie photo that she wanted Philip to see.

I'm glad Lucas is there for Allie.

[mae00]

Ugh! Cynthia never gives up does she? I hope she doesn't get the job. I'm glad Philip kept directing her down to the 6th floor. I wonder why Philip didn't say he needed to get home to Parker to?

Poor Allie. I knew that trial was gonna be rough on her. I'm glad she's not home alone and it's Lucas that's there to comfort her.

Glad Shawn's alibi was corroborated and that Shawn will be going back to work.

[André DiMera]

mae00 - Just like on the real show, Parker is Daniel's son, not Philip's. Parker splits his time between living wherever Chloe does in Chicago, and in the apartment that Daniel and Nicole share.

[lumiforeverandalways]

Ok this is the sort of scene I wanted for Lucas and Allie hopefully the get some more scenes like this soon glad Lucas can be there for her

Such a sweet moment between Shawn and Belle

Wednesday - 6/15

SAMI & LUCAS’ APARTMENT
Allie sat on the couch. Lucas brought her a glass of water, then sat down next to Allie and put an arm around her.
ALLIE: Thanks.
LUCAS: No problem.
ALLIE: I just…I don’t understand any of this. How could he do it, Dad? Manny never did anything to anyone, neither did those other girls.
Lucas sighed.
LUCAS: I don’t know, kid. I honestly don’t know what makes a person get to a point where he does something like this. But hey, the important thing to remember is, he didn’t get away with it. He’s going away for a long time, and he won’t be able to hurt anyone like that again.
Allie leaned on Lucas, and he kissed her forehead.
ALLIE: Thanks, Dad.
LUCAS: Of course.
Allie sighed. The door opened, and Sami and Sydney walked in.
SYDNEY: We’re home!
LUCAS: Hey, welcome home, guys.
Lucas got up.
SAMI: Something smells good in here!
LUCAS: Thanks, I try. Guess that new aftershave was a good investment.
SAMI: I was talking about the food.
LUCAS: Oh, you were, were you?
Lucas and Sami chuckled, then kissed.
LUCAS: Haven’t heard from Johnny yet, have you?
SAMI: Yeah, he texted a bit ago. He’s off with that girl again.
LUCAS: Meadow.
SAMI: That’s the one.
ALLIE: That makes sense.
Allie stood up.
SAMI: Hey, sweetheart. How’re you doing?
Allie shrugged.
ALLIE: Glad the trial’s over and Charlie got sent to prison for a long time, but…I don’t know, it still doesn’t make what happened hurt less.
SAMI: I know, honey, I know.
Sami and Allie hugged.
SAMI: At least that whole mess is over and you won’t have to see that monster ever again.
LUCAS: Exactly.
Allie nodded. A buzzer sounded from the kitchen.
LUCAS: And that sound means dinner is ready. Who’s hungry?
Allie, Sydney and Sami all raised their hands.
LUCAS: Me too, let’s eat!
SAMI: Remember to wash up first, girls.
SYDNEY: We will, Mom.

PIER
Johnny and Meadow were sitting on one of the docks by the Salem River. Each was holding a to-go box from the Brady Pub.
MEADOW: Thanks for this.
JOHNNY: No problem.
MEADOW: I don’t think I’ve ever been out to this part of Salem before. It’s really pretty here.
JOHNNY: Yeah, it’s nice. So, how’re you doing?
MEADOW: Okay, I guess. Glad it’s all finally over and we know for sure it didn’t. Thanks for sticking by me through all this.
JOHNNY: Of course. I’ll be here for whatever you need, always.
Johnny kissed Meadow’s hand. She smiled. Then, she took the lid off of her drink, which was a milkshake, and dipped a fry in it.
JOHNNY: What are you doing?
MEADOW: What? You’ve never dipped your fries in your shake?
JOHNNY: No.
MEADOW: Oh, my gosh. You have to try it, it’s amazing! Here.
Meadow grabbed one of Johnny’s fries, dipped it in her shake and held it out.
MEADOW: Open up.
Johnny looked skeptical, but opened his mouth. Meadow put the fry in Johnny’s mouth. He chewed thoughtfully.
JOHNNY: Hm. That is not bad, actually.
MEADOW: See? I’ve been doing this since I was a kid. It’s so good!
JOHNNY: That’s really cute.
Meadow pushed a lock of hair behind her ear. Then, she leaned over, and she and Johnny kissed.

[heroicmuse]

I'm glad Lucas is continuing to be there for Allie.

Sweet scene between Johnny and Meadow. I'm glad they're there for each other.

Great chapter André DiMera

[Kpatch]

Fries dipped in a shake sounds yucky but I won't knock it until I tried it, which I won't. LOL.

I feel for Allie. The verdict won't bring Manny or the others back.

[lumiforeverandalways]

I am so happy that Lucas is able to support Allie the bond they share is very special

That scene between Johnny and Meadow is so sweet I am glad they can be there and support one another through this

[tghca]

Lucas I'm glad is there for his daughter Allie and also that Sami is too through all of this

But also Johnny and Meadow seem so good so cute together...but there is still the issue of Johnny still keeping secrets from Meadow like him being a videographer for his father EJ and his uncle Andre or being in league with them so I wonder how Meadow will feel about that?
