I know most people are against EJ here, and I have to admit that I was, but after watching his plea to Sami today and yesterday, I could really empathize with him!! He really loves her. He REALLY feels badly about what he’d done! While it was TERRIBLE, I really believe in forgiveness, and I feel for him so badly!! JS is such an amazing actor, really making us viewers believe what he is feeling! I have always loved Rafe but I almost resented some of his snide comments and holier then thou attitude. EJ WILL suufer so much, and I am SO dreading what is to come!!!!!!!
August 27, 2010 at 11:29 pm #15786trykeryderParticipanthe was going to break down and really cry. JS is a terrific actor, but I cannot stand the character of EJ.
August 28, 2010 at 12:26 am #15790BonoSugaRayParticipantDrea,
I’m glad you FINALLY see what me and the millions of other EJ fans have be knowing all these years!
I can’t stand Rafe. Ugh.
August 28, 2010 at 12:38 am #1579253tdogsParticipantbut I LOVE EJ…and he is such a great actor.
August 28, 2010 at 2:34 am #15796caseyParticipantover how Sami had kept his child a secret from him. That was the chilling EJ who could rape and murder. I’m not as sympathetic, though ITA James Scott has played this character brilliantly.
August 28, 2010 at 11:49 am #15807BonbonParticipantEJ plead a good case. I really thought Sami was going to give in, I would have. But I was surprised to hear Sami say that she never cared for him at all. I don’t believe that. And I’m still going to hold out for EJami eventually.
And now if she gets together with Rafe, OMG, that is disaster wating to happen. How can those two ever make it together. There’s just too much insecurities and mistrust between them. Rafe, run, run for your life.
August 28, 2010 at 11:53 am #15808justwonderingParticipantI am not an EJ fan. From day one he has anipulated every situation. Remember his first assignment was to have a child with Sami. He is calculating. However, i found it interesting that he justified it because Sami had kept his second child a secret, not telling him until she(Grace) had died and then just blurting it out. Having heard that and know his calculating ways, I somewhat understand why he kidnapped Sydney and told Sami she was dead. (SO she would feel what he felt thinking he had lost his child when Grace died). Also how HE had forgiven Sami for not telling him, I guess he thought there was a chance she could forgive him. It does still show that he cn be ruthless and cold if he feels abused and in turn strikes out and abuses.
I truly feel that Sami should be alone for awhile so she can recognize the kind of person she is ans be in control of her own life. But I can’t see that happening.
August 28, 2010 at 12:26 pm #15809caseyParticipantRafe is such a nice guy but he would be just too boring with Sami for me. I would like to see Rafe with someone totally new.
August 28, 2010 at 2:09 pm #15812dvalParticipantYes he made me feel a little sympathy for him. Sami was terribly wrong the way she handled the Grace situation. BUT…there is just something about this character that always makes me think he is just waiting for the next chance to do something underhanded. I really don’t think he can be trusted. I think he will always be looking for the next excuse to do something cruel and to use his feelings as the reason why it was okay. I mean, did he ever acknowledge that his actions forced Sami to not let him know about the baby? I mean, come on, he forced her to have sex to save Lucas but he seems to have conveniently forgotten his nasty part in all of this. Just knows what Sami did wrong to him. Sorry, don’t trust him, never have, never will.
And sorry folks, but there is something about theh way his mouth turns down at the sides, he always looks like he is pouting to me, LOL. Makes me want to smack him!
August 28, 2010 at 2:12 pm #15813PattiParticipantbut as I stressed on another topic, E.J. is so obsessed with Sami that he simply cannot put this entire situation into a perspective that he can, nor will he ever, accept. He says in one breath that he loves his family, especially his children, and then he goes and pulls off something like he did with Sydney. He MUST own that over which he obsesses. He will never have it any other way. I thought BOTH James and Ali did a splendid job acting this non-wedding situation out. Every bit of emotion and reasoning behind those emotions was emitted from both actors, and I agree that Sami has been no angel in her past, but I truly believe that she is in love with Rafe, NOT E.J. She has some sort of feelings for E.J., and let’s face it, he can be very persuasive. I posted in another topic that perhaps if E.J. could have cut ties with Stefano and his extreme influence over E.J., he and Sami might have had a chance. As it stands now, Stefano has been the major wedge between them. And who is going to come out of this the biggest loser …. not Sami (no pun intended), and not E.J., but my poor red hot FBI man, Rafe, who, after all of his caring and all of the effort put forth to bring this situation to a close for the woman he loves unconditionally, I am afraid will wind up on the *hitty end of the stick, because E.J. will undoubtedly come through this by November sweeps and his evil will be back in full force, which means that he will still be using his children as his shield to obtain the one thing he will never have … his power over Sami, because she will never truly love him.
