"Days": Justin Kiriakis is Back!

Wally Kurth
JPI
Wally Kurth, most recently of "General Hospital" and "As The World Turns" fame, returned today to "Days of our Lives."

We love when daytime characters return to their show's canvas after a lengthy sojourn -- especially when they're played by the original actor. Such was the case on today's (8/11/09) episode of "Days of our Lives," when Victor Kiriakis put in a call to someone to help with Daniel's murder case ... and that someone happened to be his long-lost nephew Justin, played by daytime stalwart Wally Kurth!

 

Last seen in Salem way back in 1991 -- though he's been mentioned on and off for years, most recently in 2008 -- Justin was the epitome of "conflicted evildoer." He originally came to town in 1987 to be with his uncle Victor, who was practically his only family after his parents died. His big love affair was with Adrienne Johnson, a poor girl from the other side of the tracks whom Victor disapproved of.

 

Later, Justin took up with Angelica Deveraux, who (unbeknownst to him) became pregnant with his child. Adrienne had her own fling with Kiriakis stable boy Emilio (it happens), and when an angry Justin set up for Emilio to be killed, he got caught in his own trap and was paralyzed. He regained the use of his legs ... but became impotent (natch). For a while, at least.

well in the sami situation- after sami found out she was pregnant she knew immediately ej was the father, he kept it from him, the day she was gonna tell him she saw him romping with nicole so she left, she saw mayor marino murdered on the dimera doorstep, the killer went after he, so she was put in a safe house, thats where she met rafe. she knly told lucas and rafe that she was pregnant, but chloe found out from lucas and she told nicole, but she didnt tell ej. nicole was also pregnant with ejs baby, a miracle, but she lost it, well her, during premature labor. nicole hid the fact that she had a miscarriage, and found a girl mia who looked similar to her and was as laf along as she was. mia gave nicole her baby and got money to go to japan to dance, but she returned shortly after. mia and sami went into labor the same day, mia first. mia didnt want to look or hold her baby, this helps nicole so mia cant id her baby. and nicole headed to the clinic where sami was in labor. she switched the babies, only dr. baker knew. a few months later grace, samis baby well actually mias, got sick with bacterial menegitis and died. sami tells ej that grace was his, or so she thought. but really samis baby is alive andwell and living with ej and nicole, sydney, but only nicole and stefano know it

i hope that brings you up to speed in that storyline. but it would take forever to explain all of them but let me know if you need anymore help
