Johnny Barges in on Nicole and EJ Hugging in her Bed, Eric’s Released When Sloan Calls in a Favor as Rafe and Jada Rip on Nicole

Days of our Lives recap for Wednesday, December 7, 2022.  

In today’s Days episode, Johnny comforts a distraught Chanel, Jada confides in Rafe; Eric hires Sloan to be his lawyer.

In the last Days recap, Sloan became Eric’s lawyer, and Nicole moved in with EJ.  

At the mansion, Nicole says that she’s feeling better. He was kind to her last night. He knows she needed a friend and says he did too. They do a half-embrace and Johnny walks in and demands to know what’s going on. He thinks his dad is having sex with “Rafe’s wife.” EJ explains they’re not together and Nic says she had no place to go. Johnny calms down. Nicole goes off to shower and EJ asks his son if he’s ever heard of knocking. He didn’t know. He came there to feel Grandma Susan’s spirit. “It was dumb.”

EJ disagrees and offers to move Nicole elsewhere but Johnny says no. He apologizes for going off on him. They go over what Li did to Stefan and Ej hopes his son is keeping that secret. Johnny is. He doesn’t want to destroy lives, especially his father’s. He’s suffering enough after Grandma’s death. “We all are.” He goes and later, Nicole and EJ dress and he calls to drop the charges against Eric. Nicole thanks him. He’ll see her for dinner and says Harold will get Holly’s room ready next to hers. Nicole’s having second thoughts.

He assures her this is a good idea and she leaves for work. He tries to work but can’t concentrate. He takes Susan’s photo and looks at it. When the doorbell rings, he opens the door. “Oh my God it’s you,” he says, stony-faced.

Rafe finds Jada sitting and drinking coffee at the pub while listening to a country version of Hark the Harold Angels Sing. She called in sick and he worried. She says she got the abortion. She takes a pill and tells him it’s for the pain that’s almost gone. She’s sorry for missing work but it’s important that she take care of herself. They talk about what Nicole talked with her about. Jada knows she wasn’t going to let anything stand in the way of getting with Eric. Not either of them or her pregnancy.

Rafe worries that she had the abortion because of what Nic said but Jada denies it. This was 100% her decision. Rafe calls Nicole selfish. Jada apologizes for being petty about her but then they both start mocking how they’d walk in on Nicole and Eric’s hugs. She’s never met “a more passive-aggressive, selfish…” She stops and apologizes. As much as she’d love to keep ripping Nicole, it’s not productive. She needs to rise above. Jada didn’t want to be a single mother and not under these circumstances.

Rafe talks about how he chose to ignore that he’d end up a speed bump on their neverending road to bliss. “GPS, let a sister know where the next stop is.” Rafe calls out, “Get me the hell out of here!” Rafe gets a call and learns Eric spent the night in lock-up. Jada’s shocked. Rafe tells her why he wound up arrested. Rafe says this isn’t the first time he’s spiraled out of control. He thinks she’s dodged a bullet.

At SPD, Sloan offers her services to Eric. He’s not sure he should. Sloan tells her version of what happened with Chanel and her father. Eric says it doesn’t sound like Chanel. Sloan talks about Paulina’s cover-up and the whole sob story of how her dad drank himself to death. Eric thinks he can identify with her losing her parents because of Jada’s abortion, which he fills her in on. She again offers to fight for him.

In the interrogation room, Paulina’s visited by Abe and Paulina. She’s hanging in there, missing her bed though. Abe says he’s contacted one of Shane Donovan’s contact and she couldn’t do anything. The City Council president calls and asks Abe to resign, effective immediately. Paulina blows up. Why! “The optics are not good,” he says. Chanel blames herself and runs off. Paulina worries Abe is regretting marrying her. He’s not. He was going to resign and accompany her to the state capitol.

Paulina says Sloan’s ruined her chances of being a successful governor. She doubts she’ll even be sworn in. Abe refuses to see things negatively. She’ll be sworn in and he’ll be at her side as the first gentleman. City Council may have done him a favor. He calls Cass and is about to tell him he’s stepping down when Paulina grabs the phone and tells the man that Abe isn’t ever going to step down.

In the other room, Belle and Shawn kiss and talk about Eric. Shawn found it strange seeing him belligerent, angry and drinking. “And assaulting everyone?” Still, Belle’s heart is breaking for him. She’s having second thoughts about not taking his case. There’s so much bad blood between her and Sami. Shawn tells his wife to do what’s right. They kiss and he says he’ll tell Eric she’ll take his case. Eric appears with Sloan. She’s taking his case.

Belle’s jaw drops open. She asks him not to hire “this snake out of spite.” She says to call Justin. Sloan laughs. They argue about what Chanel did to Sloan and what that says to Abe. Eric says he’s out for justice but Belle thinks Sloan just wants to inflict pain. Eric believes in what Sloan told him about the cover-up. Trask calls Shawn. He says, “And what if I choose not to?” He disconnects and says EJ declined pressing charges against Eric. Sloan’s glad but Shawn says Trask is going after Eric for assaulting a cop. “Whether I want her to or not.” Sloan calls Melinda and tells her she handed her two career-making cases. She can settle what she owes her by ending the witch hunt against Mr. Brady. She disconnects and tells the room that Trask dropped all charges. Eric’s thrilled. He invites her to breakfast, refusing to talk to his sister.

Johnny’s so sorry he wasn’t there for her. He tells her about his grandma Susan dying. She had no idea. Allie didn’t tell her but probably didn’t want to lay anything else on her. She comforts him. He must be so hurt. He is, as is his dad.
