Author's Note: Because I am in the process of writing this story, it will be posted intermittently rather than every day. Your patience and readership are appreciated!
PROLOGUE
Molly: Good morning Dick. I’m here for our story meeting.
Dorkay: What story meeting?
Molly: Um. The story meeting we have every Monday morning.
Dorkay: Forget that. Molly girl, we need to do something special.
Molly: Um. Okay. Any reason?
Dorkay: Of course there’s a reason. I always have a reason for everything I do. We need to do something big for the 50th anniversary of Days of Our Lives.
Molly: Bigger than that football-stadium sized cake we had for the 48th?
Dorkay: Oh way bigger than that.
Molly: Bigger than throwing a bash at Mann’s Chinese Theater like we did for the 47th?
Dorkay: That was nothing.
Molly: Bigger than flying the whole cast and crew to Tahiti for nine days like we did for the 45th, when we really could have used some new sets and a better wardrobe instead?
Dorkay: You’re thinking too small, Molly girl.
Molly: But wait. Our 50th anniversary is still two years away.
Dorkay: Never too early to start planning. Think Molly, think!
Molly: Thinking. Thinking. Thinking.
Dorkay: I’ve got it! We’ll have a picnic!
Molly: A picnic? That’s not big.
Dorkay: Yes, a picnic. We’ll invite everyone who’s ever had anything to do with Days over the past 50 years -- providing they’re alive, of course.
Molly: No offense, Dick, but this doesn’t sound like a great big idea.
Dorkay: Didn’t I tell you never to disagree with me? Besides, I’m not done yet. At the picnic, we’ll reenact Days biggest storylines, starting with Mike Horton’s paternity, Mickey’s amnesia, Marlena being kidnapped by her twin, Roman’s death ....
Molly: Which one?
Dorkay: Doesn’t matter. Marlena’s possession ....
Molly: Hated that.
Dorkay: The cruise of deception, Alamania ....
Molly: Hated that too.
Dorkay: Which time?
Molly: Doesn’t matter.
Dorkay: Call the props department. See if they still have that sarcophagus.
Molly: Why?
Dorkay: We can use it for a picnic table.
Molly: Let me get this straight. You want to throw a party, but the actors have to work? They have to re-enact old scripts?
Dorkay: No, not the actors. The cast and crew. I’ve always wanted to play John Black.
Molly: Jeez. This should be tons of fun. Not.
Dorkay: Meanwhile, you have more storylines to work on for December. The audience loved November sweeps. We need to keep it going. Show me what you came up with.

Chapter 1
The Rectory
Roman: Did you touch her?
Father Matt: Pardon?
Roman: I’m asking if you moved da body at all?
Father Matt: No no, certainly not. I dialed 911 as soon as I walked into the rectory and saw Miss Dimera lying here.
Roman: Good. You did the right thing. I’m going to get a forensics team in here to check the place for clues. Hope will take your statement. Oh and Father Matt, don’t leave the country until we tell you you’re free to roam about.
Father Matt: Are you saying I’m a suspect?
Hope: At this point, everyone is a suspect.
Father Matt: But is she ... is she dead? I didn’t see either of you examine her. What is it they do on police dramas? Touch her neck, feel for a pulse.
Roman: Not necessary. I can tell from here. Besides, it would be icky to touch her. She’s dead alright.
Hope: As a doorknob.
Roman: Nail.
Hope: Sorry?
Roman: The expression is deader than a doornail.
Hope: That’s not how I’ve heard it.
Roman: Well you’re wrong. Listen Hope…. Oh, excuse us Padre. We need to confer on police business for a minute.
Father Matt: Of course, take your time. I’ll be in the church praying.
Roman: So Hope, see dis statuette of da Madonna here?
Hope: You mean the one with blood all over it that’s on the floor next to Kristen’s smashed skull? What about it?
Roman: Do ya think dis might be da murder weapon?
Hope crouched down to look more closely at the body.
Hope: Maybe. But maybe not. I wonder what these weird marks are on her neck. Looks like teeth marks.
Roman: Teeth marks? You mean hickeys?
Hope: Not sure. Maybe. We won’t know until we get forensics down here.
Roman takes out his police phone.
Roman: Listen up. Dis here is Brady. ... What do you mean which Brady? Da first one. Look, we have a 711 at 542 2nd Avenue with a possible 867-5309. I want a forensics team down here stat. Dat means yesterday.
