Gabi the Midol Mooch

I have a feeling I was not the only one who LOLed when Melanie offered Gabi some Midol for her cramps. I love that despite everything going on between Gabi and Melanie (and can I add, I loved Melanie’s lines to Gabi re: her lying cheating ways- “don’t you hate it when people won’t take no for an answer.”), Melanie is still gonna help a sister in need. What a good (pill pushing) friend.

If Midol wants to cut me a check for giving them this free publicity, I'm all ears :)

It hearkened me back to days gone by. Days when Ari was alive. Days when Gabi looked so… different. Please enjoy this walk down Midol Memory Lane:

Midol Product Placement ftw

Of all the things to ask your staff to shill, this might be the most ridiculous. But I guess Midol must have felt that it worked so well the first time it was worth doing again. Maybe Days should start selling pregnancy tests, since those are used often enough. Probably not birth control though, that never seems to be very effective in Salem. (Shout out to @CarrieT52 and @drae_will for reminding me of this ridiculousness).

FriDAYS recap

Abigail sucks.  I don’t really get the Chad/Abigail flirtation.

My favorite exchange:

Abigail: “Look, you know, I’m not real interested in the reading preferences of a man who has tried to destroy everyone in my family.

Chad: “I have a father who’s taking care of me, and you don’t.”

Desperate Carly and her drugs.  How long is this going to take to play out?

Team Lawrence?

Sami & Rafe

Sami’s pretty cocky for someone who fell for a lookalike husband for months.

Stefano & Kate gloating for different reasons about the exodus of Rafe. Bummer it will be short lived, I love some good Sami downfall gloating.

Melanie & Darlo

Hate flirting.  He’s moving across the hall?  Of course he is.

Jennifer extols virtues of Midol Complete (sure to be on Youtube soon) to Abigail; Other Dimera comments: “I don’t trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn’t die.”

**UPDATE FROM THE OTHER DIMERA** We found the Midol Complete video. I’d apologize for the poor video quality, but DiMeras don’t apologize.
