As soon as upon a time, Eric was the nice twin, whereas Sami was the chaos agent who brought about large issues for all of Salem. Not anymore!
Eric’s been drained for some time of being good. He is left the priesthood behind, damaged up with Nicole for what’s supposedly the ultimate time, jumped into mattress with Sloan, and faked a kidnapping to drive Kristen at hand over the orchid that can save Marlena’s life.
Spoilers for Days of Our Lives for the week of 1-09-23 recommend that is solely the start of Eric’s fall from grace.
Eric could make extra sense as a grey character. His impeccable, priestly character at all times got here off as extra holier-than-thou than holy, and his judgmentalism towards Nicole was at all times further cringy, contemplating he left the priesthood to be together with her.
He has the most effective chemistry with dangerous ladies like Nicole, Eve, and Sloan. (I’ll perpetually be unhappy that Eric/Eve by no means grew to become a factor!) His worst pairing was in all probability the equally saintly Jennifer, which put viewers to sleep.
Nonetheless, Eric’s in a single day transformation from the “good” twin to troublemaker is jarring. It appears like a cry for assist from somebody who has suffered too many heartbreaks and desires psychological well being therapy.
Hopefully, by the point this story ends, Eric will discover his footing and be extra trustworthy to himself. He would not have to return to his faux good man persona, however evil would not go well with him both!
In keeping with spoilers for Days of Our Lives throughout the week of 1-09-23, Eric will maintain Kristen at gunpoint.
This weird conduct will seemingly settle the query of whether or not Kristen is taking part in video games with the orchid, however the very last thing we’d like is one other unstable individual with a gun.
Eric’s conduct is probably going pushed by the truth that Marlena’s sickness has returned, and it is solely a matter of days earlier than she succumbs to it.
Kate supposedly died already, and Kayla is weak, leaving Marlena the final lady standing. However with out the antidote, she’ll once more turn out to be severely and terminally unwell.
That’ll depart Eric livid, and he is been barely unhinged for some time. His out-of-control conduct may depart some viewers questioning whether or not he is been possessed by the Satan!
Hopefully not. We had greater than sufficient of that, and ghost Charlie guiding Ava towards damaging conduct wasn’t a lot better.
