It was another whirlwind week on Days of Our Lives and I was left with one question. Why doesn't Dr. Dan wear a cape? He's obviously Salem's latest superhero. Not only can he perform any medical procedure from heart transplants to brain surgery, now he's also bulletproof.

When Nicole made that wild shot towards Daniel and Liam rolling around on the ground, it certainly appeared that Daniel had taken a bullet to the abdomen. But no, this is Dr. Dan so the bullet must have bounced.

Liam may have really been a zombie for as many times as the guy got up. Back in the cabin I had to laugh when Jennifer yelled at Nicole that they didn't need the gun. What?!? I know Jennifer Rose is naive why wouldn't you take the gun? Unfortunately, Nicole was too busy looking for her missing paperwork to worry about Liam's firearm. 

Watching Liam impale himself on that branch was somehow both creepy and laughable. Laughable mostly because the guy still wouldn't die. And now Nicole's shredded documents are floating around on the breeze on Smith Island. Since they're protected by a plastic sleeve I'm guessing that they will turn up again but Nicole does have one thing going for her. The Salem PD's track record is so bad I doubt they'll ever find it while they search the crime scene.

The other big story of the week was the custody agreement.  It was great to see Nick's mask finally slip, especially with Abigail. She's been one of his biggest supporters and she's finally getting a taste of what crazy, controlling, manipulative Nick is like. 

By Friday I actually began to feel sorry for Gabi. She's finally realizing that Nick has been manipulating her but she has no idea what to do about it. I think the guilt is overwhelming for Gabi. She feels as though Nick can put her and everyone she loves in prison if she doesn't do exactly what he wants. When she told Will she had to believe that Nick has changed or she's going to lose her mind, I really did worry for her sanity. 

My guess is that Nick will end up dead in the next week or so. He's pushing things to the limit with everyone. Kate, Sami, Gabi, Will, Sonny, Abigail, Rafe, and EJ will all be suspects. 

The best moment was at the very end, as EJ sat back and waited for Nick. EJ's simply line in this Days of Our Lives quote was threatening in a way that only a Dimera can deliver it.
