Good-Bye Sami Brady

On Friday October 31st, Samantha "Sami" Gene Brady, said good-bye with hugs and tears and left Salem. "The Biggest Loser" host announced earlier this year, that she was leaving the show to spend more time with her family. Sweeney, has already written 4 books " All the days of my life so far".
" The mommy diet" "The star attraction" and scared scriptless: A novel". Sweeney's exit was shocking and sad to her fans including myself. After portraying Sami Brady, the scheming teenager that we first saw in our screens in January 6 1993. Sami went from the most dramatic storylines in the show, and we saw her suffer, we cried with her and we laughed with her. Sweeney's storylines went from Date Rape to bulimia, to lying to faking a paternity test to make Austin believe that he was Will's father, to trying to separate her mother from John Black. Her weddings are ones that we will never forget. She was married to Austin and then she got married to Brandon. Next she married Lucas. And then she met and fell in love with at first sight with E.J Dimera, when she learned who he was she decided to leave him. Later she met and fell in love with FBI agent Rafe Hernandez. After deciding to leave Salem, Sami chased Rafe to the airport and confessed her true feelings. However they got separated after Sami lost Grace whom she believed was her daughter, when in reality it was Sydney. In November of 2009 Sami learned from Rafe that Nicole had stolen her baby from her, because earlier Nicole lost her own. This brought Sami and E.J much closer. Sami decided to break up with Rafe after believing that Sydney was dead ( a cruel act of E.J because sami had kept the truth from him, about being Sydney's dad). EJ brought Sydney back in Sami's arms and this made EJ look like a hero. Sami and EJ and on the day of the wedding, Rafe has prove and stops the wedding and tells Sami, that EJ ordered Anna Dimera to kidnap Sydney. Shocked, Sami decides to leave to EJ and take the kids with her. EJ being drunk and sleeping in the bed, Sami enters the room with a pistol and shoots EJ. When Arianna Hernandez died, Sami realizes that Ari had proof that Sami shot EJ, desperate she tells Rafe. However Nicole found the tape first and on the day that they got married EJ came and took the kids away from Sami. From here Rafe and Sami suffered when Rafe was switched with a doppleganger hired by EJ in order to get Sami away from Rafe. This however, doesn't last long and pretty soon Safe is back together. However the biggest shocker came when Sami cheated on Rafe by sleeping with EJ. EJ and Sami get back together and are engaged, until EJ sleeps with Abigail Deveraux. EJ trying to get Sami not to find out the disturbing truth, about his affair decides to end his relationship with Abby. However what EJ didn't know is that Sami turned the tables on him, as she had learned the sad truth, that the love of her life cheated on her. EJ and Sami get married, but Rafe soon comes in and arrests him, little did EJ know that this was all part of Sami's plan to throw him in jail. Sami later confronts EJ in his cell and calls him off. She later does the same with Abby. However, EJ and Sami are still deeply in love with each other and decide to get back together. Sadly and tragically in the midst of their happiness, EJ is tragically murdered by an unknown character. This causes Sami to decide to leave Salem. Perhaps one of the best scenes came when Sami and Nicole said good-bye and Sami let Nicole say good-bye to Sydney. After many years of rivalries between them, Nicole and Sami finally made peace and they hugged. Days later, the day had arrived in which Sami was leaving Salem. She said goodbye to Kate and they both started crying, stating that Kate made her life miserable for years, but that in the end it was worth it, because she turned Sami into a professional woman. It was sad to see these scenes, it was especially sad to see Sami looking at her photo album, I cried throughout the entire episode. Perhaps one of the saddest and sweetest moments is when Marlena and Sami were remembering when Sami was a young teen. I really would have loved to see Sami say goodbye to John as well. Later everyone gathered at the door and Lucas, Kate, Sonny, Marlena and Roman all bid farewell to Sami. Farewell Sami Brady and Farewell Alison Sweeney, thank you for entertaining us with your storylines and your romances for 21 years. I wish you luck and will continue watching " The Biggest Loser".
