SOW: John Takes A Beating

Please link to Daytime Royalty.

After a locked-up John is severely beaten by the other inmates, his priority is getting out of jail alive.

The week begins with Brady refusing to visit his dad in jail, despite pressure from Marlena. "Brady doesn't want to discuss his dad", asserts Eric Martsolf. "It's been a few years since Brady last saw his dad. John was definitely informed of Brady's behavior since he left Salem. It's not the kind of behavior that makes a father proud, so the dynamic between them is a little rough around the edges."

Drake (John) notes, "Outside of Belle, Brady is John's only flesh and blood. It's heartbreaking to have Brady turn away from John in no uncertain terms. He tells Marlena that Brady is a grown man and he has to make his own decisions. John's feeling is that he'll just have to live with Brady's rejection."

Marlena, however, takes a different position. Drake previews, "Marlena says, 'That's not the John Black I know! The John Black I know embraces his family and fights for his family.' Ultimately, John takes her advice."

Meanwhile, John's situation takes a dangerous turn when the guards place him with the general population. "John is put in a cell," shares Hogestyn. "At 2 o'clock in the morning, there is a suprise exercise break. John is ushered into the prison yard and the other inmates work him over pretty good."

The next morning, Marlena visits John and is shocked to see him cut and bruised. "Marlena is John's salvation and always will be, "points out Hogestyn.

Later, Roman breaks the news that John could remain behind bars indefinitely.

I wonder what John did to deserve to get a beating. Not like he is a pedophile or anything.

[ghoulgirl]

I thinks it's part of the set up. Just to create a little extra drama

[jaysdelina]

That would be my guess too.This is all just a set up though,there's something odd about it all.

[ghoulgirl]

I'm Definitely looking forward to watching it unfold. Hopefully they do it right.

Hmmm. So they beat up on seniors in jail? What for? He took one too many pudding cups?

[jaysdelina]

ROTFLMAO!!That was great DD,lol.My guess?EJ's running for Mayor right?What better way to garner the voters support than if he rides into the rescue and "helps"John in some way?I bet he set it up just so he could ride in to the rescue and become the hero.
