Gabi is released from prison! What else ... oh, Paige is dead, there's a Necktie Killer wandering the town, Kayla has a hot son, Aidan is Pure Evil, and oh yeah, THIS IS HAPPENING.

While we still digest that, there is good news. Part One of Sonny's European Adventure!

"Dear Mom and Dad, Hi! Things are going great! I'm having a blast working for Victor in Europe, and I miss Arianna, of course, and you guys, but I feel so much relief now being away from Will's drama. For the last few months I've felt throttled by him. I wish someday he could know how that feels.

Anyway, I'm currently in Germany working for one of Uncle Vic's newest acquisitions, a bar called "No Limits." He bought it from a really sweet guy named Oliver, who's offered to run it with me while we get it back on its feet. He just went through a breakup with his own "Will," and we've started to become ... close.

That's all I'm really comfortable telling you guys at this time, but I'll talk to you soon!

Love, Sonny"

Will is sitting in Town Square with Marlena, and tells her he hasn't heard from Sonny since he left. Maybe he should learn some German. He admits to her that it makes it hurt even more knowing "I did this. I made this happen. If it hadn't been for me, Sonny, me and Ari would still be a happy family." Well, a family.

Marlena tells him that she's always there for him, and then they change the subject to Paige and Serena being murdered. Will can't believe Chad would be accused.

I'm glad Kayla is on the frontburner, but One-Eyed Willie is pretty limp so far. One-Eyed Willie needs to get some blood pumping through his vein.

Will tells Marlena that Chad has been more of a DiMera since he's been back, but there's no way he could be a killer, especially since he didn't even know Serena and Paige. Marlena tells him maybe it's time he got back to work, and Will says "I can't even think about journalism right now." Marlena responds that "you're a wonderful writer. Pick something you're passionate about, and just start to write. I think the words will just flow out of you." Well, something will. And great, Marlena, you've just given him the go-ahead to ruin another family member's life.

Abby walks through Town Square talking to the lighted trees when Will interrupts her insane inner monologue. He asks how she is, and she says fine, which surprises Will since, you know, people around her are being murdered and the guy she banged not too long is the prime suspect.

He asks if she's talked to Chad, and she makes a hasty retreat, saying if she's late Ben may squirt his eyes with Glycerin again.

Wait ... what? Did i miss something. Will shows up at the precinct and tells Rafe he got there as fast as he could, and this is all happening so fast, and then ... Gabi enters, in street clothes, and hugs Arianna. HUH?

Okay. Well, that's it! Thanks for joining me. We'll be back tomorrow, and this explanation should be a doozy.
