About

EJ arrived in Salem on May 30, 2006 and EJ and Sami had a memorable first meeting with EJ in only a towel and Sami drenched because of a plumbing problem in her apartment. The sparks between EJ and Sami were immediate and the chemistry was undeniable.

Over the summer of 2006, EJ and Sami shared many romantic moments, but since Sami was engaged to be married to Austin Reed, nothing more than a few passionate dances and one accidental kiss was exchanged between EJ and Sami. EJ treated Sami with a unique respect and admiration, unlike anything Sami’s boyfriends, fiancés, or family had ever shown her. EJ was a true friend to Sami from the beginning.

Sami did not marry Austin because of one of her many misdeeds that resulted in her being blackmailed, but EJ was there to help her and support her, and very soon they started dating. Their dates often ran into trouble due to a meddling son and ex-boyfriend. The childish sabatoging drove a wedge between Sami and EJ. When EJ was pushed too far, he made a mistake and got involved with Sami's arch enemy, Kate Roberts.

EJ and Sami's relationship was cut short when Sami found out that he had been sleeping with Kate Roberts and that EJ was a DiMera. Following the breakup, EJ made some horrible decisions that ended up hurting Sami, and one such mistake was making an indecent proposal to Sami on December 29, 2006 after Sami jumped into his car and demanded his help in saving Lucas’ life. EJ was on the run from the police at the time and he required steep payment for his help: Sami had to sleep with him.

After that day, EJ tormented Sami with the truth about the night they had sex, especially after he discovered that Sami was pregnant, possibly with his child. Eventually, the truth came out and EJ admitted his mistake, apologized, and is doing everything he can to earn back Sami’s trust. EJ claims that his motivation for making the indecent proposal to Sami was in order to get her pregnant so stem cells from the baby could be used to save his father's life.
