Fake Rafe played up his torment over what he “had” to do to Jada as the wedding drama continued. The bulk of the Monday, February 3 episode of Days of Our Lives involved Jada listening to “Rafe” tell her why he couldn’t marry her.

A Tall Tale

Obviously, the wedding between Fake Rafe/Arnold (Galen Gering) and Jada (Elia Cantu) didn’t happen. Of course, Jada’s not thankful right now. But she will be when she learns about Rafe’s devious doppelganger.

Instead, “Rafe” told Jada how EJ (Dan Feuerriegel) had hired him to get dirt on her. He paid an exorbitant amount of money because she caused him to lose the DA job, and he hoped to pay her back. So, EJ and Arnold stuck close to the truth.

However, the rest of it was pure fabrication. “Rafe” told Jada he enlisted a cop friend of his to go through her files, and the stuff he came up with was damning. She clearly tried to prove to Paulina (Jackée Harry) how good an acting commissioner she was while Rafe was in a coma.

An entire dossier showed Jada’s corruption. Shawn (Brandon Beemer) even brought the file to the wedding.

Beginning of the End

Why would he take EJ’s case? He said that with the money EJ paid him, he would be able to give Jada a wedding surprise. Also, he knew he wouldn’t come up with anything because Jada was a by-the-book person.

Unfortunately, he dug up the dirt. And as a result, he couldn’t marry Jada because she wasn’t the woman he thought she was. Jada couldn’t believe what she was hearing. Paulina claimed she couldn’t marry the two until they got to the bottom of this sudden mess. And she had Shawn take Jada —STILL WEARING HER WEDDING DRESS— to the police station so they could go over the dossier.

Needless to say, the guests at the wedding were appalled at “Rafe’s” actions. Steve (Stephen Nichols) said the smartest thing in the entire episode. He said they would have to consider the source. “This has EJ DiMera’s filthy fingerprints all over it.”

How EJ’s Plan Can Go Up in Smoke

So, one way this can all go wrong for EJ and Arnold is if Steve follows up on his hunch and digs into the situation on his own. He and Jada are connected through Marcus (the late Richard Biggs), so he will do anything to help his late best friend’s daughter.

Another way this situation can go terribly wrong is if Javi (Al Calderon) and Leo (Greg Rikaart) fess up to Rafe cheating. Everybody is starting to see that “Rafe” hasn’t been acting like Rafe. The guy they knew wouldn’t work for EJ. He hates the man. And he wouldn’t cheat on Jada with an exotic dancer.

If anybody finds out about the cheating, maybe finally, somebody will deduce that there’s something terribly wrong with Rafe and his recent choices. And do something about it.

What did you think about the wedding drama? Did you think “Rafe” did well when he showed how tormented he was over doing this to Jada? And what did you think about Belle (Martha Madison) and EJ going for another round? Let us know in the comments.
