Brady and Nicole reconnect and make love on
Days of Our Lives (DOOL), but their romantic reunion doesn’t last long.
Soon after they slip out of bed and get back into the real world, the pair finds themselves confronted by a masked man who breaks into their Canadian hideaway.
Danger Is Lurking“Unfortunately, their time of happiness is cut extremely short,” says
Eric Martsolf (Brady). “They have an unexpected visitor in the form of a terrifying presence, who’s come after them.”
But, first, the good news for Brady and Nicole fans – that love scene. Martsolf describes it as anything but stereotypical.
Love Is in the Air
“There’s no pan out to the candles, pan into the montage,” he shares. “I remember Ari (Zucker, Nicole) and I discussing that we wanted it to be more about the connection and less about the romanticism, so to speak.
“It’s more about the eyes. It’s more about the feelings. It more about the connection that Brady and Nicole share than anything else. There’s no strawberries and chocolate. There’s just love. When you get down to it, that’s when soaps are at their best, when there are two people connecting.”
A Special ConnectionWhile the couple have obviously been between the sheets before, Martsolf notes that this time is different.
“This is probably the first time that they’ve gone out of the spectrum of friends with benefits and entered into the realm of, perhaps you’re the one… perhaps you’ve been the one all along. Maybe we’re meant to be.
“I think both of them are taking it much more seriously,” continues Martsolf. “Brady and Nicole have connected before to fix each other’s wounds. Now they’re connecting because it’s meant to be in their minds.”
A Cry for HelpHowever, that blissful connection comes to a screeching halt when a continue reading on the next page masked intruder busts into their safe house.
“
Nicole
sees him first and screams,” explains Martsolf. “Brady comes running
in. Sure enough, the guy has pulled a gun and he is not in a playful
mood. He’s there to get something done. He’s there to wreak havoc on
these people and definitely has revenge on his mind.”
That guy is Xander (
Paul Telfer), Victor’s wild, unpredictable and, above all, very dangerous nephew.
Time for Action
“There’s some banter back and forth,” explains Martsolf. “There’s some
conversation about why he’s there and the wrongful nature that he feels
the family has deposited upon him.
“He feels like the thwarted relative who was never given the chance that everyone else was. He’s bitter.”
Brady opts to take matters into his own hands, literally.
“He decides to just physically handle this on his own,” says
Martsolf. “He knows why Xander is there and doesn’t believe this is
going to end well in any way. Brady believes he’s there to kill them and
get rid of them. So what have you got to lose at that point? That’s his
mindset.”
Bang, Bang
So Brady goes after Xander and a struggle between ensues the two men ensues.
“The struggle ends with a gunshot, and someone gets hit,” notes
Martsolf. “The whole game changes after that. Brady and Nicole’s whole
Canadian adventure changes drastically.”
