Welcome to Days of our Lives Daily Y.A.P.P. (Your After-Program Ponderings) for a quick — and by that, I mean you’re already halfway done — recap of the most amazing or what-the-heck-did-we-just-watch moments on today’s episode. Let’s get to it:

What happened on Days of our Lives

Yes, Rachel Black is a child in need of therapy and mental health help. And Brady was right to place her in Bayview after learning that not only did she give Sarah tainted ice cream, but she was also the one to shoot EJ DiMera last spring. But Bayview doesn't look like the place for her any longer. First, she has come to terms with what she did, so there is no reason why she can't continue to receive outpatient treatment. Second, the Bayview staff is not very astute or responsible. They can't even recognize when a clearly disturbed patient is faking mutism and walking in and out of the facility at will. They never catch her leaving notes in Rachel's room, despite the fact that Sophia and Rachel are to be kept apart. Does Sophia beam herself places? Does she don a cloak of invisibility? How does nobody notice any of this? And since the staff at Bayview is clearly incompetent, Rachel is still under Sophia's influence, so of course, Kristen would want her daughter out of there. How many more chances will Brady give this mental health facility to get it right and get things under control? Right now, he just seems ridiculous and Kristen is the only one who makes sense. She even thinks it's a fine idea if 40-something Brady gets his own place and starts paying rent. Kristen may even be about to do the same.
