I can't stop obsessing over what, "Are you ready for round 2?" means. Although I haven't seen the promo myself, the gist of it is that it involves EJ, Nicole, Sami and showed clips from the original baby switch storyline, right?? Who knows how this is all really going to play out or what they have in mind, but here's some thoughts...
OK, so we know EJ and Nicole have recently had sex and let's not think too much about the upcoming EJ/Screechy sex...but say they both do get pregnant, both by EJ.
Absolute best-case scenario....let EJ mess with Scrunchy's paternity test...because you know there will be one, and let her believe that Rafe is the father, even when the results show that the baby is EJ's. I know some think it is a stretch to show EJ just letting one of his children go, but I think it makes sense if what they're trying to show us is EJ desperate to hold onto the woman he really loves and the family he really wants with Nicole :-)
Also a good but not the best scenario, Sami is in on it too. I kinda like the idea of both of them putting any Ejami possibilities to rest by acknowledging to each other that they are both in love with other people, especially on EJ's part. The only downside to this is that it could backfire on us one day...when Nicole and/or Rafe find out both Sami and EJ would be in hot water...and their track record is not good when it comes to situations like that.
Anyway...I have more to add but it'll have to wait to later...work is calling. Would love to hear everyone else's thoughts on this!

Just remember that "Ready for Round 2" stuff was not connected to the promo. They were separate clips that were shown before the promo.
I just want the least OctoSLUT scenes as possible because I couldnt watch her in those clips. Its too much Sami for me already.
I do think our "surprise" is the baby and EJ wants to cover up the bestiality because he finally has want he's always wanted and maybe the doctors told him and Nicole that its a high risk pregnancy and that she needs to take it easy.
I think Sami is going to confess to Rafe because Will makes her, but everyone's going to hide it from Nicole.

I don't think there will literally be another baby switch. Even as many times as this show has disappointed me in the past by doing same old, same old, I don't think they're going to go to that well this time.
Probably the major reason I feel that way is that as far as we know, Alison Sweeney is not pregnant in real life. She was quoted when she announced her pregnancy that she thought it would be great to have her pregnancy written in to the show--why she thought that when Sami had just been pregnant for 11 months and put us all through a WTD story, I have no idea, but she did. The show obliged her, in what definitely felt like a rewritten mess. I always felt like Nicole's pregnancy was planned but that when AS actually showed up pregnant, they decided to go with a baby switch scenario.
Having Sami go 3-for-3 on pregnancies with EJ would be beyond stupid. Not to mention which, if she's not actually pregnant, I doubt AS wants to be wearing pregnancy padding, though granted Chloe had a quick pregnancy and barely showed until the end. Also, it appears that MarDar may well have quashed a Sami pregnancy with Rafe/Rafe 2 as WTD, so I don't really buy them wanting yet another WTD for Sami.
What I think is more likely meant by "round 2" is that this time around, Nicole is the one EJ is married to. Nicole is the one whose marriage he didn't want to end, and screwing Sami is the potential dealbreaker. Nicole may or may not get pregnant, but I just don't see a reverse baby switch. Screwing Sami, based on the SOD interviews, sounds like a horrid mistake that neither party is going to want to repeat. It's not romantic, it's a "we never would have done this if not for nightmare circumstances" thing. I doubt we'll see EJ trying to convince Sami that them rutting means they're meant2be and that she should leave Rafe once the campaign is over and they can be together. The point of the boink is to mess things up, and while a pregnancy can do that, it isn't needed.
When Philip and Chloe had their ONS, it didn't accomplish bringing them together. It made them want to hide it from the people they actually loved. Chloe's pregnancy made sense because she thought she probably was never going to get pregnant, and she didn't already have four children. That is what this reminds me of, the difference being that the stakes here beyond hiding it from the people who they love would be EJ's campaign and Will's subsequent personality morphing.
I am curious about how many people Will tells and how soon though. Marlena working through issues with Sami was supposed to be part of November sweeps, I think, so I wonder if Will tells her and she confronts Sami? I would like to see those scenes, as long as Marlena is permitted to call Sami a hypocrite and make her apologize for all those years of blaming her own shitty behavior on her mother.

Dee Hall told a fan during the signing that she had some powerful scenes with Chandler after Thanksgiving. I think he definitely confesses to Marlena.

Or, it could mean that they find out Sydney is really EJ and Nicole's daughter.

I think it's called Round 2 because Sami and Nicole both get pregnant at the same time, not that a switch is in the works. For one, Nicole would never take another baby of Sami's and she's strong enough this time to walk away from EJ if she found out he cheated on her. I also think it's just used to add drama into Safe's relationship, but the baby will ultimately be Rafe's. I don't even know if they would allow Sami to have 5 kids with 3 different daddy's or maybe they would do it because Safe is the holy couple! I think some good conflict for Safe will help that pairing, if it can.
If you take the boxing analogy, think of it like this. You have the same set of characters in the same type of situation, but things can turn out completely different and end nothing like the first round. That's what I get from this Round 2. You have Sami, Nicole and EJ, the same characters, thrown into a similar baby scenario, but this time around the variables have changed and the feelings have changed so things will turn out completely different!! I 100% don't believe Sami will have EJ's baby. It's just the writers wanted to present that possibility to throw drama into things. And knowing this is an Ejole story, I know this is just a "sucker punch" that stuns you for a bit, but it doesn't mean it will knock Ejole down. It's the opposite. So if that made sense, Round 1 went to Sami. Round 2 is going to Nicole. And who wins out in the end will be Ejole by Unanimous Decision!!
**Some of us were talking in chat yesterday and what seems most logical is EJ struggles with what happened and just as he decides to tell Nicole everything so they can work it out, she jumps in and announces she's pregnant with their child. And knowing how she's high risk, he decides not to tell her the truth right now because he doesn't want to risk the baby. I mean, you cant fault EJ for that. But when he's about to tell her later after the baby is born, someone beats him to it. Drama, drama, drama. In this scenario, Sami bitch doesn't even need to be pregnant and get in the way. But if she does get pregnant, I hope she finds out quickly it's Rafe's

I can't help but wish for Sydole, I would love that but if someone is going to get pregnant I see Nicole at the top of that list of possibilities. Sami, already with four, not so much if they want her to have Rafa's baby they at least have to change Sydney's maternity and make her Nicole's. I can at least accept that scenario.

Yes, Nicole gets Sydney and a new baby brother or sister for her!!! I want EJ taking such beautiful care of Nicole when she's pregnant. BUt if she doesn't get pregnant and Sydney is hers, I'll take that too. Oh, what would suck is if Sami got preggers, not Nicole and poor Nicole finding out and being so upset because she can't have his child. No way Sami wins!!

Ugh, don't even put Sami and the word pregnant in the same sentence! LOL! Anyway, I would LOVE for Nicole to be pregnant, not only for her sake but also for EJ's. EJ needs to be given the chance to be with his child before he/she is born. He was never able to share that experience with Skanki. And sure, Nicole kind of gave it to him last time around, but she didn't let EJ get too close to her (of course, that was because she wasn't really pregnant). Bottom line is, EJ needs to experience what it's like to be there with your child from conception till birth.

Ok, this is sort of not totally on topic, but remember when Ari was pregnant and she kept eating tiny pellets that we couldn't tell what they were? I remember reading an interview where she explained that the reason they did that was to "explain" her weight gain. As a friend of mine said, oh yes, a handful of Rice Krispies goes STRAIGHT TO MY THIGHS. LOL! I also had to laugh--in the middle of those very emotional reveal scenes--when EJ angrily talked about how stupid he was for being fooled, in part because of how fast his wife got her figure back . . . and there Ari stands, something like seven months pregnant. Oh Days, I'll never be able to quit you.

Anything ending with Nicole pregnant with her and EJ's child or children will be okay with me!!!! Of course I would prefer it not be at the same time as Sami is pregnant, but if I could get an EJOLE baby!!! WOOT WOOT!!

I think the mystery that EJole imbark on is them finding out that Nicole did not lose her baby.. And the mystery will be where is EJole baby.

Honestly speaking, I believe that this storyline could work. We have to remember that Dr. Baker was in the baby trading business. He told Nicole that her baby didn't make it...but it is quite possible that her baby DID survive, and Dr. Baker sold her to the black market. EJ and Nicole somehow find out that there baby is a live, and then they go on a mission to find her! Oh, I really hope that is what the "mystery" is about!
