What character in the history of Days had the worst exit ever?
Go as far back as you can remember. Tell us what the exit was in case we have forgotten or weren't watching at the time.
Of the recent exits, Stephanie's non-exit was terrible.
I hated the way John and Marlena were rushed out the door. They deserved a better exit than a nutty doctor injecting John with poison that left him paralyzed. Then in a matter of a couple days, they hurriedly got married in a hospital room with barely anyone there and quickly left for a clinic in Switzerland. Even Sami and Brady never mention them. It would be nice for Brady to say something to Victor about John's recovery from his paralysis.

Stephanie disappearing. It's as if she was never there. Whether that's a good thing, or a bad thing, I'll leave that up for discussion. But no one even says "Oh, Steph left for (insert locale here)." We have no idea where she is. Unless she's in the dreaded 'upstairs'. Duh..duhn...DUHN. <--- soap music

Stephanie for sure. And now that you mention it, didn't her parents exit the same way. They were just gone. Eventually we learn that they went to Africa, but at the time, I don't remember them saying that's where they were going.
I think John and Marlena had one of the most hasty exits in history.
Oh wait, where's Anna?

How about ALL of them. TPTB don't know how to write a proper exit.

When Steve and Kayla both left. That was horrible. As cherished as Steve is, I cannot believe they did that to him. He deserved better. Phillip (moment of silence) has a bad exit. I won't even go there right now, it's still too fresh. Stephanie...eh. As witchy as that little snot has been, I don't miss her at all and she didn't really deserve a real goodbye. Cassie and Rex. Bad exit there too. I'm sure nobody has checked on Cassie since she went to go take a nap, poor girl. Yep. No proper send off's for anybody these DAYS.

Steve and Kayla's exit was disgraceful. They were 'still in Salem' for a while, then we found out they were in Africa. I'm glad it was semi-rectified with Kayla's 2010-2011 returns, but still.
John and Marlena's was awful just because of how rushed it was. The show knew they were leaving. Couldn't it have been spread out over a week or two?
Nicole's exit in 2006 was stupid, too -- she had that one-nighter with Roman (blech) and then no one mentioned her for a while, until Sami or Austin had a line about how "Nicole met some soap star in L.A. and married him."
I just hate the non-exits for major characters. The only part of that I enjoy is that they're not picking off important characters left and right, which is what happens on ABC. If this were General Hospital, no way would Philip or Stephanie have made it out of Salem alive...

The Philip equivalents on GH are Lucky, Jason, and Michael. Those are characters that the show has built upon. And Days was trying to do similar with Philip. However, Nathan would have been swimming with the fishes. Stephanie would have just left town.
