How cute was Philip begging Chloe not to leave Salem today? JKJ did an amazing job; it felt very natural and spontaneous! Philip was being so sweet and romantic. And I loved seeing Philip really smile

I don't know if the physical stuff was directed or if Jay came up with it on his own. The begging was beyond adorable. But when he reached out and sort of chucked her on the chin, I melted. SO CUTE.

I think much of that kneeling bit was ad libbed - just Jay and Nadia having fun with the scene. It kind of reminded me of the scene were Chloe was first diagnosed with leukemia, and Philip and Brady came into the hospital room. Jay started doing some kind of crazy dance, and Nadia/Chloe cracked up, asking - 'what's that?' Jay/Philip laughed, and said something like 'I have no idea.' That moment always felt completely spontaneous, spur of the moment, unrehearsed - I felt the same about the kneeling.

Well I definitely think he improvised the line "Ok, this is me begging." I'm sure they do improvise in their scenes with each other sometimes since they seem very comfortable working with each other.

I agree, I think that line was improvised, and Jay did something else, while on his knees, I also felt was not scripted. Jay and Nadia had fun with that moment, and it showed.

That's one of the things I love about Jay and Nadia together - is they do seem to do a lot of ad libbing and having a good time together. I think it's one of the reasons Jay adores Mindy so - she did the same thing when she had a scene with him! LOL
From listening to the actors talk about what it's like to memorize that much dialogue, sometimes they just approximate their lines or say something that their character would say (which they all said becomes easier as you know your character better). I think ad libbing is fairly common on soap sets.

My cheeks hurt because I smile so wide and giggle while watching that scene (of course it's saved on Tivo right? ) I was thinking the whole time...that's not Days ...that's Jay! Omg Steve, I remember exactly the scene you're talking about. It was hilarious. lol. And poor Brady's dance went unnoticed. lol. Seriously, that was one of the BEST moments of my life. That scene was the craziest, most exciting, and unexpected event to ever happen to me. LOL. And to "represent" the way we did. Wow. All of us Jay/Phloe fans stole the show that night. Jay was so proud and happy that we did. Great memories.

I had loads of pictures on my old computer which crashed last year. I still haven't taken the hard drive to a technician to try to salvage anything. But I will and when I do, I'll be sure to share!
