While Gabi’s determined to do the right thing, “inside, she’s hurting,” admits Banus. So she refocuses her energy on her and Abigail’s plan to help their families get the Orwell device they both covet. When Gabi ends up in the Kiriakis mansion and gets the chance, she sneaks off.
Caught in the Act
“Gabi’s trying to look for it, when all of a sudden Chad walks in,” says Banus. “He finds Gabi snooping and kind of interrogates her.”
Things intensify, when the pair are caught by Deimos (Vincent Irizarry). “He asks why they’re there,” notes Banus. “Chad and Gabi try to play it cool, but Deimos doesn’t buy it. It turns into a fight. Deimos takes out his gun and threatens them. He basically gives Chad an ultimatum. He says he’s going to kill Gabi unless Chad gives him the device.”
Protecting Gabi
Chad questions Deimos about “why he’s putting Gabi, this innocent person in the middle of this war,” recounts Banus. “Chad’s frustrated and upset. You definitely see him stepping up to the plate and defending and protecting Gabi the best he can.”
Gabi is quick to take notice, and it means the world to her.
“From the minute that she met Chad all Gabi has ever wanted is to feel loved by him, comforted by him, and protected by him,” assesses Banus, whose Gabi witnesses first hand just how much Chad really does care about her. “So, it’s a great feeling.”
But, unfortunately, being held at gunpoint at Deimos’ hands, doesn’t allow her to revel in it.
