At the Dimera Mansion, EJ tells Stefan that he backed Paulina into a corner and she was forced to rehire him to keep her job. Stefan says that he wants Gabi released right this second or else. EJ says the court is closed for Juneteenth and anyway these things take time. Stefan says he'd better go to court tomorrow and Gabi better be released or he's telling Nicole. Holly comes in and says, "Telling her what?"
Before Stefan can come up with a lie answer, Holly says she doesn't care. She thinks Niocole is controlling and overbearing anyway. Stefan leaves to give her and EJ privacy.
EJ asks what the problem is. Holly says she's only getting along better with Nicole because Nicole is too busy with Jude to hover constantly over her. She complains again about not getting to go to the prom. EJ says from Nicole's perspective, Holly overdosed the last time she went to. a party. Holly says but this is a high school dance, not a drug orgy. Anyway, tell Nicole I"m in a bad mood and don't want to be disturbed and I'm going to study.
Nicole shows up and says Holly can go to the prom and eventually convinces her to go (detailed in a different thread).
Later, EJ and Nicole are talking about Holly and the prom and kissing and Stefan comes back in and asks if they are celebrating EJ's job news. Nicole doesn't know what he's talking about. EJ says he would have told her but Stefan jumped the gun. Paulina rehired him as DA. Nicole is surprised. She thought he was running for mayor. EJ says Paulina saw the light when he was no longer working for Dimera. Nicole says she's glad to see Stefan supporting him in any case. Stefan says that EJ has also had a change of heart and reopened Gabi's case.
Later, Stefan takes photos of Holly and Aaron before they leae for prom. After they go, EJ and Nicole are cuddling on the couch. Stefan texts Nicole the photos and tells EJ he texted them to him too. However, what he actually texted EJ is a threat to tell Nicole the truth if Gabi isn't released tomorrow.
Nicole thanks Stefan and asks if he's sure these are all the photos. He says if he comes across anything else she should see he will send it right away.

Holly not caring about overhearing EJ and Stefan's latest conversation was funny. Other than that more of the same

Good thread title. I kind of an amused at the way Stefan keeps digging at EJ. Clever stuff. The problem though is it makes little or NO sense. Why would Stefan assume he has the upper hand.
If he squeals to Nicole, then EJ will make damn sure Gabi never sees the light of day again. I just don't understand the leverage angle.
Stefan can't even be an honorable thief. The arrangement is rather simple. EJ will try to set things up to ensure Gabi is released. It DOES take some time. Then Stefan gets his beloved bride back. But by pressing EJ to rush OR ELSE, he is jeopardizing the very thing he is after.
Stefan is truly a annoying figure. And at heart a true dumbass.
Holly could give a rat's ass about things other than her "romantic" adventures. A true teen. Ha.
