Welcome to the official episode post! Here's where we'll be posting the YouTube clips and discussing today's episode.

Ready, set, discuss!

Depending on how much context you want, amelialourdes also uploaded a Will-only version:

No Sonny in today's ep, but we do get some insight into Will and his fear of change as he graduates high school. He doesn't know if he's ready to face this new life. Oh, bb, buckle in, because change is a-comin'!

Will is so adorable, y'all. I've barely met the boy and I already want to feed him ice cream and lollipops and tell him everything will be okay.

LMAO. Oh, soaps. I have a feeling Will is not going to have any trouble with keeping it in his pants...until Sonny gets him alone. :D

Is that guy who wants to be Will's roomie Kinsey's boyfriend?

I have no idea, lol. He's either dating her or Will's cousin (the one that's also cousins with Sonny. EITHER WAY, WILL IS GOING TO BE DATING A RELATIVE OF A RELATIVE).

[bigboobedcanuck.livejournal.com]

I feel like they're seriously all cousins!

Once Will gets to know Sonny, his pants situation is going to be v.v. confusing to him, what with all the excitement down there.

Honestly, I'm starting to think they are all cousins, LMAO. I know that Will is cousins with the same girl that Sonny is (I don't remember her name, but she was blond), but they are not actually related (a step up!). I'm not sure who Will and Gabi's friends are related to though (I've seen exactly all of Will's recent eps and that's the most I'v ever watched of Days).



LMAO - poor Will. Do you know I'm already writing fic in my head and they've had like one minute of shared screen time? I'm not writing it, damn it.

Will's friend Chad is dating his cousin Abigail. The friend who wants to be his roommate I've only ever heard called "T", and I'm pretty sure he's dating Kinsey, but not 100%.

But, yeah, the way everyone is sort of related, even when they aren't really, is kind of crazy. Like you mentioned about Will dating his mother's sister-in-law. And Will and Sonny both having Abigail as a cousin. And, also? Will's mother's Aunt Kayla is married to Sonny's Uncle Steve. So, he's related to Sonny, but not really, on both his father's side of the family and his mother's!

Hell, even Will's best friend, Chad (the one that Abigail is dating)... Will's grandmother, Kate, is Chad's step-mother. There are just about no degrees of separation between any two characters on this show!

I think I need a flow chart, LMAO.

So Sonny is Will's second or third cousin by marriage? *headdesk*

Wait - so Will is Chad's...SHIT, I don't know. What does that make them?

[peggin.livejournal.com]

Will is Chad's... I guess it would be step-nephew? It does get very confusing!

[slayerkitty.livejournal.com]

Wow. And I thought the Snyder family tree was twisted.

[bigboobedcanuck.livejournal.com]

Awww, Kayla and Steve. So they're still together, off somewhere in the world?

Will's grandmother Kate. Is she Lucas' mother? Sami's parents are Marlena and John, right? Or Marlena and Roman? And where is Roman -- the real one, I mean -- these days?

Chad is cute! I can see why people were hoping he'd be Will's love interest. I think Stefano's brain would explode if his -- son? Grandson? -- was gay. Stefano does not strike me as being particularly gay friendly.

I'm pretty sure Kayla and Steve are still together, but it's hard to keep track of characters who aren't on the show anymore. Hell, it's hard enough to keep track of the characters who ARE on the show!

Kate is Lucas's mother, and his father is Bill Horton. Sami's parents are Marlena and Roman; John is her step-father. Roman is supposed to still be in Salem, but I think I've only seen him once or twice in the last couple of months.

Chad is Stefano's son, but he only found out about that fairly recently. But, yes, I do totally agree that Stefano would NOT take kindly to having a gay son. I mean, Justin and Adrienne expressed some concern about telling Victor about Sonny, but I think Victor will accept that sort of thing a hell of a lot easier than Stefano ever would.

[bigboobedcanuck.livejournal.com]

I had to laugh at Victor and...the shirtless guy (name?) today. They seriously looked like the older rich gay man and his young studmuffin! But yeah, I think Victor will take the news about Sonny better than Stefano ever would. If Chad and Will got together, Will would likely be booking a one-way ticket to a stint in the Dimera basement!

[peggin.livejournal.com]

The hot shirtless studmuffin is Brady, Victor's grandson (John and Isabella's son).

[bigboobedcanuck.livejournal.com]

Is John Victor's son? Or was Isabella his daughter? I vaguely remember her.

[peggin.livejournal.com]

Isabella was his daughter. She died when Brady was a baby.

[bigboobedcanuck.livejournal.com]

Ah yes, now I recall. Thank you for being our Days wiki! :D

I'm kind of amazed over how much of this stuff I remember. Until a couple of months ago, I hadn't watched the show in something like 7 or 8 years.

[pghbekka.livejournal.com]

Sami is the only character I remember at all. I watched OLTL and AMC more often.

[laurondo.livejournal.com]

John is somehow related to Stefano. That bit of info came out before John and Marlena left the show, but I have no idea how it did or how he's even related to Stefano.

[peggin.livejournal.com]

John and Stefano have the same father, although I don't think either of them ever knew that until fairly recently.

[laurondo.livejournal.com]

RIGHT! That's what it was. Santos or something.
