Days of our Lives has ramped up EJ’s need to learn everything that went down in Italy between him and Cat. However, it’s not just about Cat or the possible relationship there. In true EJ fashion, all roads lead back to Sami, and that’s the same in this case.
Key Takeaways
- EJ pushed Marlena to recover his memories of Italy.
- The conversation spoke volumes about where EJ is in his life.
- It’s not about the memories but rather unresolved feelings.
The Night That Changed Everything for EJ
For years, Sami (Alison Sweeney) spent time by EJ’s (Daniel Feuerriegel) side as he recovered from the horrific warehouse fire that nearly killed him. When EJ woke up and Sami returned to Salem, things had shifted, but the couple was still together.
Thanks to her fling with Lucas (Bryan Dattilo) and his tryst with Belle (Marhta Madison), they called it quits not long after they were both in Salem. However, recent developments hint that something else or someone else, aka Cat (AnnaLynne McCord), came between them before Belle and Lucas.
EJ has become adamant to find out what really happened between him and Cat at the clinic in Italy. Although he has brief flashes of Cat reading Wuthering Heights to him, EJ’s still in the dark about any details surrounding their Italy connection.
Cat knows the truth, and she doesn’t want EJ to find out. For Cat, this could be because of something that went down or her secret ISA agent status.
It’s different for EJ, though. While he’s convinced it’s about the memories, his pushing Marlena (Deidre Hall) to do whatever it takes to recover them might just be about his feelings.
The timing of Cat reading to him seems to align with shifting feelings between Sami and EJ. That is what EJ really wants to know. After all, Sami or Samantha, as he calls her, has and will always be the great love of EJ’s life.
EJ clearly has some feeling or inkling that Italy and Cat are tied to things changing for him and Sami. The passion and determination EJ expressed to Marlena about getting his memory back, and the devastation he felt when she admitted he might never recover those memories, were far deeper than mere curiosity.
Only one person brings that kind of fire out in EJ: Sami. All signs point to more to this story than just Cat reading to EJ or whatever else happened between them, at least on EJ’s part.
