Days of Our Lives Transcript
Transcript provided by Suzanne
Ben: Oh! Susan banks. What the hell are you doing here?
Susan: I had to come– I had to come back. I had to. I had a premonition. Yeah. About your baby.
Ciara: How did you know that I was pregnant?
Susan: [Gasps]
Chloe: Morning. Oh, you look tired. Were you up late?
[Dramatic music]
What did you do last night?
Nicole: I had sex on that conference table with rafe.
[Dramatic music]
Ava: Rafe. Thank god you’re here.
Rafe: We need to talk.
Demon marlena: So good to see that the havoc I wreaked on halloween is getting some publicity.
[Eerie laughter] Hang on to your hats, boys and girls. You ain’t seen nothing yet.
[Eerie music]
Susan: [Huffs] You know, your lack of faith is like a knife to my heart. How did I know that you were pregnant? Honey, I told you, I had a premonition!
Ciara: Okay, and you came all the way from memphis to tell us that.
Susan: Yeah! See, once I saw what the future holds, I drove straight here like a bat out of hell.
Demon marlena: Since I spent the night raising souls from their graves, maybe I’ll spend today putting a new one in the ground.
[Eerie music]
Male announcer: Like sands through the hourglass, so are the “days of our lives.”
[Soft orchestration]
Tripp: I’ve already left ten messages. Just tell commissioner hernandez to call me back, okay? Hey.
Allie: Hey.
Tripp: Is he asleep?
Allie: Yeah. Grandpa roman and my dad kept him up way past his bedtime. I guess they were watching some animated halloween movie. Lots of little ghouls and goblins.
Tripp: Oh, I bet they had fun.
Allie: Yeah. I’m just glad that he wasn’t here for our little horror show. And I still don’t know if that was real or not.
Tripp: Yeah, me neither. And now I feel really bad about telling my mom that charlie’s little visit from hell was all in her head, that she was just hallucinating.
Allie: Yeah, well, if she was hallucinating, then we were too. I mean, we saw your dead brother also.
Tripp: Yeah, but there has to be a rational explanation. I mean, maybe some weird halloween mind trick was going around.
Allie: I don’t know. But I felt charlie’s hate. I felt his evil. He wanted to kill me. He wanted to kill both of us. And I really thought he was going to.
[Dramatic music]
Rafe: You told both shawn and eli that your deceased son was responsible for the dead man that I found in my kitchen!
Ava: It’s the truth.
Rafe: Oh, god.
Ava: Rafe, I swear. Charlie crawled out of his–his grave, and he stabbed carmine merlino. I watched him do it.
Rafe: Come on, ava. Come on!
Ava: Come on? You have to believe me! Why are you being so cold?
Chloe: Okay, that’s a good one. Wait, are you serious? You had sex with rafe on this table? Eww. So, are you gonna tell me how that happened?
[Dramatic music]
[Eerie music]
Demon marlena: Just as I was about to kill john black last night, their pesky grandson interrupted. Well, prepare to meet your maker, john black. You have cheated death for the last time.
Brady: Marlena?
Susan: I got here as fast as I could. Oh, I did stop off to get a couple pounds of turkey jerky. I mean, they say it is the world’s best. So, am I right? Am I right? Is ben weston’s seed flowering in your womb?
Ben: Yes, susan. Ciara is pregnant.
Ciara: Yeah.
Ben: It was confirmed this morning.
Susan: Oh, I was right! I was right! Oh my god! You know what, when I-when I see the future, I’m always right. My visions are always right. I mean, except when I play the slots in those- those-those riverboat cruises that I take with roger. I mean, I swear that those little one-eyed bandits–I think they’re rigged. I do.
Ciara: I believe it. So, wait, so you came all the way here to tell us something that we already know.
Susan: No. No. I came to warn you.
Ben: Warn us about what?
Susan: Your baby, it’s in grave danger. Serena: It’s my 3:10
Ben: Danger? Susan, what are you talking about?
Ciara: Okay, ben, you can’t listen to her. I mean, no offense, susan, but from what I’ve heard about your visions, you are wrong more often than you are right.
Ben: Yeah, but how’d she know we were pregnant?
Ciara: I don’t know. Maybe shawn told someone, and then they told her, and–
Susan: [Growling] You know what? I’m used to people doubting my gifts– at their own peril.
Ben: She was right before. When you were missing, she helped us find you.
Susan: And you know what? You know what? If-if-if that mean, mean, mean kristen dimera didn’t convince me to switch places with her, you would have been found a heck of a lot sooner.
Ben: You were in statesville while she was running around free.
Susan: Yeah! Running around free as me! Making a lot of trouble in town, and breaking poor brady’s heart.
Marlena: Brady. I didn’t hear you come in.
Brady: I just dropped rachel off at school. Is everything okay?
Marlena: Of course. Why would you ask?
Brady: Well, to be honest with you, when I walked in, I swear I heard man’s voice say something about father cheating death? Yeah. Yeah.
Marlena: Oh, right. I was talking to roman on the speakerphone.
Brady: Oh, is dad in some kind of trouble or danger?
Marlena: Well, not that I know of. Not that I ever would know of. But he’s on some secret mission with black patch. I just, I’m hoping that nothing bad happens to him.
Brady: Nothing bad’s gonna happen to him. He’s indestructible. You know that.
Demon marlena: Yeah, we’ll see about that.
Brady: What?
Marlena: I said I can’t wait to see him when he’s back.
Brady: Yeah. I’m surprised he left. I mean, it’s your anniversary. Right?
Marlena: Yeah, of course, of course. You know your dad. He’s always racing off to help somebody. Anyway, I was-I was racing off on an errand that is fairly urgent, so I’ll be going.
Brady: If you have one minute, just one minute, I would love to get your advice on something.
Marlena: Sure. Glad to be of help.
Allie: I always feel so safe with you.
Tripp: I can stay as long as you want.
Allie: I appreciate that, but I know you want to go see your mom. I love you, tripp.
Tripp: So, that part wasn’t a hallucination.
Allie: Saying that to you is the only part about last night that I know was real. I’m sorry it took me so long to say it.
Tripp: Don’t be. I’m just glad you did. And allie, I love you, too.
[Light piano music]
Ava: I have been here all night, by myself, freaking out, and you finally show up, and you are as cold as ice. What is going on?
Rafe: I’m just trying to get to the bottom of what happened.
Ava: I told you what happened.
Rafe: Well, why don’t you tell me what carmine merlino, a well-known mobster who had put a bullet in the mayor, was doing in my house to begin with?
Ava: I was making dinner, and all of a sudden he showed up, and he starts ranting and he starts raving, and then all of a sudden he attacked me.
Rafe: Really?
Ava: Yes! Rafe, he threatened to strangle me. He started to do that ,and all of a sudden charlie shows up, and he put a knife in carmine’s chest!
Rafe: Okay. Okay. What did charlie do then?
Ava: You know, I didn’t stick around. Because as much as I wanted to catch up with my psycho zombie kid after he stabbed the guy who tried to kill me, you know what, I just got the hell out of there.
Rafe: Right. Well, there’s just one major problem with your story.
Ava: What’s that?
Rafe: We only found one set of prints on the knife that was used to kill carmine– yours.
Chloe: Wait, I’m confused. I thought you were dating ej. Did he freak out over that thing with steve’s phone? What happened?
Nicole: No. Chloe, can we please not talk about it right now, okay? I’m exhausted.
Chloe: Yeah, I bet you are. I bet you are, my friend. And I care about you. And if you did something you regret–
Nicole: I don’t regret it.
Chloe: Oh, well, then I’m even more confused. I know that you have feelings for rafe, but I thought you two agreed to keep your distance…
Nicole: We did.
Chloe: Out of respect…
Nicole: We did.
Chloe: For ava.
Nicole: Yes. We did.
Chloe: Then, what happened?
Nicole: There were, um, extenuating circumstances.
Chloe: What does that mean?
Nicole: You know how committed I was about not acting on my attraction for rafe. ‘Cause I didn’t want anything to get in between ava and him.
Chloe: Okay, then what happened?
Nicole: I almost died.
Chloe: What?
Nicole: I saw– right here, in this room, I saw–
Chloe: Well, what-what is it? What’d you see?
Nicole: Deimos kiriakis.
Chloe: Deimos is dead.
Nicole: I know that. But last night, he came back to kill me.

Ciara: Thank you, susan, for helping ben find me. Really.
Susan: Oh, I would really like to help you again, now.
Ben: One moment, susan. Maybe we should hear her out. I mean, she really did come all this way.
Ciara: I don’t know, ben. It seems very personal. Not to mention weird. Look at her.
Ben: Yeah, she’s definitely odd. But like I said, how did she know we were pregnant?
Ciara: Like I said, maybe shawn told someone and the news got to her somehow. Look, I don’t-I don’t care, ben. I do not like her coming into our home out of nowhere, telling me that scary things are gonna happen to my baby.
Ben: Well, the baby wouldn’t even exist right now if she didn’t help us. Look, if you want me to get rid of her, I’ll get rid of her right now, but I think it might be easy if we just listen. We definitely don’t have to believe anything she says.
Ciara: Fine. Fine, fine, fine. Fine. Susan.
Susan: Mm-hmm?
Ciara: We would love to hear your vision.
Susan: Oh! That is such a good decision! Very smart and intelligent.
Ben: Yep. Okay, so why don’t you go ahead and tell us, susan, what kind of danger you think my child is in.
Marlena: What do you want advice about?
Brady: Rachel. Rachel. Ever since kristen’s little surprise visit–that’s what I’m referring to her attempt to kidnap our daughter–she’s been asking all kinds of questions.
Marlena: Like what?
Brady: You know, like, why did mommy have to leave again? You know, when is mommy coming back and taking me on that surprise trip that she promised? And I don’t know what to tell her.
Marlena: Well, why don’t you try the truth?
Brady: Well, she’s-she’s really young. I don’t think I want her to know all the things her mother has done.
Marlena: Well, I wasn’t talking about her mother. I was talking about you.
Brady: What I did?
Marlena: Brady, let’s just be honest. Are you or are you not harboring impure thoughts about chloe lane?
Chloe: How much did you have to drink last night?
Nicole: I was stone cold sober. I came here to get some work done, and I looked up, and an undead deimos was standing right there, and he was furious. And he came at me, so I grabbed a pair of scissors, and I stabbed him in the heart, and he died. Again.
Chloe: Oh, my god.
Nicole: I was freaking out, obviously, so I called rafe to help me, but by the time he came here, the scissors were on the floor–no blood, no body, no deimos. I mean, it was halloween, and it was really creepy, you know, being here by myself. I don’t know, maybe-maybe I imagined the whole thing.
Chloe: Still sounds terrifying.
Nicole: Yeah. I was a wreck when rafe got here, and he was so kind and comforting, and one thing led to another, and–
Chloe: And then conference table sex?
Nicole: Yeah.
Chloe: So, now what?
Rafe: So, how do you explain the forensics report?
Ava: I don’t know, rafe. Maybe zombies don’t have fingerprints.
Rafe: You do have a connection to carmine, though. You used to be his boss.
Ava: Yes, used to be. I cut my ties with my past.
Rafe: Oh. Okay. But not according to gabi. In fact, she says that you and philip kiriakis were using carmine to blackmail her, that if she refused to sign over her company, they were gonna pin a murder on jake that he didn’t commit.
Ava: Yeah. Right. Of course. Of course. Why am I not surprised that your sister is using this to try and turn you against me?
Rafe: Well…
Ava: She’s the reason I spent the night here, isn’t she? She is the reason you never showed up.
Rafe: Ava.
Ava: I know. I know that shawn called you and he told you I was here and that I needed you. So, where were you? What was so important that you couldn’t come here and help your girlfriend, who is being held on suspicion of murder?
[Dramatic music]
Rafe: Ava, there’s something I need to tell you.
Brady: I would hardly call my feelings for chloe impure.
Marlena: Oh. Well, we could argue semantics all day long, but the truth is you do have feelings for her. And when kristen asked you about it, you said you didn’T. So you lied. You lied to kristen, and you lied to yourself.
Brady: I’m trying to be respectful here. I really am. I mean, look, chloe has said that she’s with philip. She’s with philip. So, I-I know that she wants to work on it with him.
Marlena: You are her first choice.
Brady: I blew my chance, and I’m going to accept it. I have to accept it.
Marlena: No, you don’T.
Brady: No, I don’t? Okay, then what–marlena, what do you-what do you-what do you suggest that I do about this?
Marlena: I suggest you go back to the office, you find chloe, and without a word, you lay her down on the conference table and show how big your feelings are for her.
[Dramatic music]
Ava: Where were you last night?
Tripp: Mom. Are you okay?
Ava: Yeah, honey, I’m fine, I’m fine. No thanks to some people.
Tripp: Didn’t they give you my messages?
Rafe: Yeah, I’ve been kind of busy.
Tripp: They were refusing to let me come back here. I could have really used your help. I’m so sorry I left you last night.
Ava: No. Are you kidding? I told you–I insisted that you go check on allie. Are she and henry okay?
Tripp: Yeah. I just came from there. They’re fine.
Ava: Thank god. Thank god charlie didn’t hurt them.
Rafe: Your mother says she saw your dead brother last night.
Tripp: She did. Allie and I saw him too.
[Dramatic music]
Allie: Dupree. Why aren’t you at the bakery?
Chanel: My bestie/business partner called in sick, so–
Allie: What’s that?
Chanel: Chicken soup. Guaranteed to cure what ails you.
Allie: Well, that’s very sweet, but I have a confession. I’m not sick, I just didn’t get much sleep last night.
Chanel: Oh. So, you and tripp–
Allie: We were together, but it’s not what you think. Actually, something really scary happened last night.
Chanel: Well, halloween’s all about being scared.
Allie: No, it wasn’t, like, normal halloween scary.
Chanel: Well, why don’t we sit down and you can tell me all about it?
Ciara: All right, susan. Tell me, what grave danger is my child in?
Susan: I’m not really clear on the specifics.
Ciara: Mm-hmm. But you said that you know what the future holds, so.
Susan: I did! I did see it! I did! It’s just, sometimes it gets a little fuzzy, like.
Ciara: Mm-hmm. Okay, here’s the thing: I just found out that I am pregnant, so the last thing that I need is any negative thoughts or opinion or idea fluttering around in my brain. You know, like, I’m freaked out enough as it is.
Susan: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no, I would never want to make a mother-to-be feel ill at ease. No! It’s bad enough with the morning sickness. But you have to listen to me! It’s very important that you hear what I have to say.
Ciara: Okay, but it seems to me that you don’t even know what you have to say, susan.
Susan: You know what, it’s like I told ben when you went missing: I just-I can’t control the vision! I just can’t! And-and-and-and one minute, everything is super duper sharp, and then the next, I just lose the signal. And I can always get it back. I can. I can always get it back if I tune in just right.
Ciara: Mm-hmm.
Ben: Yeah, and it helps if you hold on to something, right? Like the fortune from the cookie, right?
Susan: Oh, yes, ben! That could work! That–yes! Yes!
Ben: Okay.
Susan: You know what, I just need to get a psychic vibration from the baby. Do you have a rattle or something?
Ciara: You know what? We haven’t really gotten a rattle yet. I found out a couple of hours ago, so.
Ben: What if you, like, put your hand on the belly?
Susan: Oh, yeah.
Ciara: My belly?
Ben: I meant ciara’s belly.
Susan: I know, silly. I just couldn’t resist a good six-pack. Wow.
Ciara: Okay, that’s enough.
Susan: Oh, okay, right, I’m sorry. Okay. Yeah.
[Mysterious music]
Oh, I feel something. Oh, my goodness, you got a little life force in there.
Ben: Okay, yeah, what else, susan? Susan?
Susan: Oh! Oh, the evil! Oh, lord, the evil! Nicorette knows, quitting smoking is freaking hard.
Chanel: So, what was this scary incident that kept you up all night?
Allie: I don’t really want to get into it. But I can tell you something else that happened last night. I finally told tripp that I loved him.
Chanel: Horton, that’s amazing. He must be so happy. I know he was feeling a little insecure about it.
Allie: Right. Because you guys talked about it.
Chanel: Guilty as charged. Sorry I lied.
Allie: Why did you?
Chanel: I don’t know. When you came off the elevator and you saw the two of us talking, it was a little bit awkward, and I didn’t want to speak out of turn. But all that matters is that tripp knows you want to be with him and not me, despite johnny and that ouija board nonsense. What was that all about, anyway?
Allie: He saw you feeding me the pumpkin cookie, and he thought it was intimate.
Chanel: Are you serious? Halloween really makes people see things that aren’t there.
Allie: So, did my brother ever apologize for being a huge jerk?
Chanel: He did come over last night, and we did make up.
Allie: Hmm, so, in other words, you let him off easy.
Chanel: Oh no, I made him work for it. Literally.
Allie: What do you mean?
Chanel: Who do you think covered your shift this morning? Starting at 5:00 A.M.
Allie: No way.
Chanel: G decorated six trays of dia de los muertos cookies, and then I had him help me with this surprise order that came in for a cake. Some folks celebrating a 56-year anniversary.
Allie: Wow! 56 years. That’s a long time.
Chanel: Some people really do beat the odds. They’re destined to be together, and they stay together. They’re so-called super couples.
Ciara: Oh, my god, ben, what are we gonna do with her now?
Ben: I don’t know. Maybe I should go get dr. Evans. She’ll know how to handle it. Will you be okay here?
Ciara: Do I have a choice?
Brady: Can’t believe you just said that.
Marlena: You needed to hear it.
Brady: You think I should go to the office and throw chloe down on the conference table? Marlena, come on. No! No way! No.
Marlena: Brady.
Brady: Yeah.
Marlena: You can’t keep going on like this. You’ve got to be honest with yourself and with the woman you love. And I think this is the most direct way. I mean, it’s bold and daring, and very romantic. So, you go on and you find chloe and show her who’s boss.
Brady: Marlena, I am her boss. I am her boss. Even if I wasn’t her boss, and even if she wasn’t involved with somebody else, I mean, come on, that kind of behavior in the workplace–
Marlena: What? Worked for john and me. John had his way with me on the conference table at titan.
Brady: Right.
Marlena: And the rest is true love history.
Brady: Also recall it traumatized sami, and also ruined your marriage to roman.
Marlena: Well, roman got over it. Eventually. And philip will too. The thing is, when there’s this kind of a powerful attraction, it has to be expressed, because the heart wants what the heart wants. And so does the body. So, you go on to chloe, and you tell her how you feel.
Brady: Okay.
[Eerie music]
Chloe: What’s going to happen when ava finds out about this?
Nicole: Look, rafe led me to believe that it was over between him and ava.
Chloe: Since when?
Nicole: Since she was taken into police custody on suspicion of murder.
Chloe: What?
Nicole: It’s a really long story, but apparently ava’s been lying about leaving her life of the mafia princess behind, and it turns out that she’s been hiding the guy that shot abe, and then she ended up killing him in rafe’s kitchen with a knife.
Chloe: Oh. Okay, let me get this straight. So, last night, you and ava both possibly stabbed someone to death. But in ava’s case, there was a body.
Nicole: I know, it sounds crazy!
Chloe: Yeah, but let’s go with it. So, if rafe and ava really are over, what does it mean for you and rafe? Was last night a one-time thing, or is it the start of something?
Nicole: I don’t know. Rafe and I didn’t really talk much last night.
Chloe: Well, maybe you should talk now.
Ava: You saw charlie. See, I told you.
Rafe: Yeah. Listen, tripp, I get why you’d want to cover for your mother, but lying to the police isn’t a good idea.
Tripp: I’m not lying,. Okay, look, when she first told me she saw my brother, I didn’t believe her either, okay? I thought she was having a drug flashback. But when I went over to allie’s place, charlie was there holding her.
Ava: God. Oh my god.
Rafe: But you said she and henry are okay, though.
Tripp: Yes.
Rafe: All right. Well, go on. What happened next?
Tripp: Charlie let go of allie and he came after me. We fought. I just kept hitting him over and over again. And finally, allie pulled me off of him. And we took our eyes off him for like two seconds, and he just disappeared.
Rafe: Disappeared?
Tripp: I can’t explain it, okay? He just vanished. All right? You don’t believe me, do you? I don’t blame you. I mean, I’m not sure I believe it myself.
[Dramatic music]
Nicole: This doesn’t make any sense. Deimos was here, dead on the floor, with a pair of scissors in his chest. I mean, how could he just- how could he just disappear?
Rafe: Well, then I’ll go check on charlie’s grave.
Ava: Let me come with you.
Rafe: Yeah, sorry about that, but until this is all cleared up, you gotta stay here. As a dj, I know all about customization.
[Light instrumental music]
[Dramatic music]
Demon marlena: I can’t wait to see what happens with chloe and brady. Even if he doesn’t have the nerve to ravish her right now, I’ve planted the seed in his brain, so it should cause some trouble. Now, on to his father, john black.
Ben: Oh, hey. Dr. Evans, hi. I really need to talk to you.
Marlena: Yeah. I’m sorry, I was just leaving.
Ben: It’s really important. We just found out ciara’s pregnant.
[Eerie music]
Ciara: Well, good morning, sunshine.
Susan: Goodness, gracious. I am so sorry about that.
Ciara: That’s all right. Are you okay?
Susan: You know, I’m a little lightheaded, but it is passing.
Ciara: Good. Good. Well, I still think you should rest until marlena gets here.
Susan: Oh, you know, I did not mean to upset you! I didn’t!
Ciara: Oh, I know. I know. It’s just, you know, it’s not particularly helpful of you to put your hands on my belly and start screaming about something evil. Ben is already really worried about our baby, because of his family history and the things that he’s done in the past.
Susan: Yeah, I know. I know. He was the necktie killer. But dr. Marlena evans told me that there’s no threat to anyone anymore.
Ciara: Yes, that is right, he’s not. But he’s still worried about passing on his “evil gene” to the baby.
Susan: Well, everyone knows that I’m not one to stick my nose into anybody else’s business, but– I didn’t mean to upset you at all, so I’m just gonna-I’m gonna go to the little girls’ room, and then I’m gonna be moseying on my way.
Ciara: Well, wait, susan. If there’s even the slightest chance that my baby is in danger, I need to know. I’ve lost count of how many asthma attacks I’ve had.
Chloe: Brady? Brady. Are you okay?
[Dramatic music]
Chanel: So, where is this man you have declared your love for?
Allie: At the police station.
Chanel: Is he in trouble?
Allie: No, but his mom is, and he’s trying to get her out of it.
Tripp: Mom, I am so sorry I doubted you.
Ava: It’s okay, hon. I am starting to have some doubts of my own.
Rafe: Yeah. Head over to the ceremony and check out charlie dale’s grave. Let me know if you find anything unusual. And while you’re at it, check out deimos kiriakis’ as well. Okay.
[Dramatic music]
Ciara: I know that the love and I ben have for each other will get us through whatever the future holds. I know that. But I’m gonna need you to try again. So, just please.
Susan: Okay.
[Eerie music]
Ciara: What?
Susan: The evil! The evil associated with this baby is very strong! Oh my, there’s so much!
Ciara: Okay. What does that mean? Does that mean that ben was right, that he passed on his evil gene to my baby?
Susan: No! No! The evil’s not coming from the baby’s father! The evil is coming from someone else.
[Eerie music]
Marlena: Ciara’s pregnant. Are you sure?
Ben: Yeah. Yeah. She took an at-home test, and then kayla confirmed it this morning.
Marlena: You and ciara are having a baby. That’s the best news ever.
[Laughing]
