ACCENT PROFILE ■ Soap Opera U pdates DAYS OF OUR LIVES

I t appears as if John’s fate is sealed. Pronounced guilty by a “trying to be just, but Stefano is blackmailing me” judge, he is to die in the gas chamber. Stefano told the Judge it was either him or John - who can blame the Judge for choosing John? Amazingly enough, Aremid’s legal system is so incredible that John’s execution will take place in 48 hours. Kristen was devastated and ran to John; however, it was Marlena’s hand that John held. As for John’s run-in with the courts of Aremid, we think he should have found himself a more competent lawyer than Mickey Horton. We all breathed a sigh of relief as the Lady-in-White finally got the diary back from Stefano. Unfortunately, Stefano realized the “missing book” was important and went to the lady’s cham­ bers, trashed her living area and took back the diary. He reviewed the diary and found out that Tony was framing John, yet he still let the judge convict him. Oddly enough. Celeste found some morals and was disgusted with Stefano’s choice. In a more typical move, she let John’s verdict stand and didn’t tell anyone about Tony’s plan. Hope’s luck is not very good right now either. Jude’s holding her captive in a “Misery-esque ” fashion in a cabin deep in the woods. She did manage to free herself from the bedpost to which she was handcuffed. Unfortunately, her feet were bound a little more securely. Jack and Jennifer have run off to the Cayman islands to­ gether.
