Relaying Sad News
“There’s something that I have to tell you,” Jennifer (Melissa Reeves) relays to someone over the phone. That someone is her cousin and Doug’s only daughter, Hope (Kristian Alfonso). “A little while ago Jack tried to wake up your dad,” Jennifer continues. “But he didn’t wake up.”
The scene cuts to Jack (Matthew Ashford) approaching Doug’s bed in his bedroom. He attempts to get him to stir to no avail.
Meanwhile, Hope is absolutely crushed. She clutches her chest and dissolves into tears. “Daddy,” she mutters flashing back to precious memories of her beloved father.
Later, at the hospital, Kayla (Mary Beth Evans) informs Marlena (Deidre Hall) of the sad news. “Doug passed away,” Kayla tells the fellow doctor.
