A B O U T
Samantha Gene "Sami" Brady and her brother Eric were born onscreen in 1984 - Sami is named after her mother's twin sister and her mother's best friend, Eugene Bradford. Their father Roman (presumedly) died at the hands of Steffano DiMerra shortly after their birth, and they were raised primarily by Marlena and then John Black - whom, for a time they presumed was Roman. following the (presumed) death of their mother Marlena in a plane crash in 1992, the twins moved to Denver, Colorado and were raised by their maternal grandparents the Evanses. When Sami returned to town rapidly aged in early 1993, she quickly attached herself to Austin Reed, who was her older sister Carrie's boyfriend. Also early in her stay, she witnessed her mother make love to John Black on top of the conference table at Titan Publishing. Sami was immediately crushed, and became alienated against John and her mother. She vowed to protect her father at all costs from finding out the truth. When Marlena found herself pregnant, Sami confided in her friend Jamie Caldwell. To forget about her pain, she actively pursued Austin Reed. When Lucas Roberts first came to town, he was instantly attracted to Sami's older sister Carrie. In an attempt to break up the couple, Lucas and Sami started to date in order to make them jealous. It did not work and the two quickly stopped.
Sami was a candy-striper at the hospital in Salem, and quickly found out how to read a blood test. Sami concluded that Marlena's baby was John's and not Roman's, so she switched the blood test results so her father would not have to hurt.
Around this time, Sami met a model, Brandee, who kept her thin figure by means of bulimia. Sami thought that if she binged and purged, Austin would see how thin and beautiful she was, and that he would love her. She eventually hired Brandee to flirt with Austin, which culminated in a kiss witnessed by Carrie. Austin and Carrie broke up, and while Sami was happy, she began to feel guilty about hurting her sister. At this time Sami stopped trying to get Austin for herself, but was still bulimic. Now she didn't want to be thin for somebody else; she wanted it for herself, at any cost.
By this time, Marlena had given birth to a daughter, Isabella, or "Belle" for short. When Sami overheard that there were to be new blood tests on the child, she panicked and kidnapped the baby. She made arrangements to live at Jamie Caldwell's temporarily so she could find a couple to adopt the baby via the black market. John found out just in time and thwarted her plans. Scared, Sami booked a flight to Florida and tried to flee with Belle, but John caught her before she could board. When Roman found out about the kidnapping, he ordered Sami into counseling at the hospital. However, Belle never received another blood test, so Roman did not know Belle wasn't his child. Marlena found out about Sami's bulimia and confronted her; in turn, Sami told Marlena that not only did she see her and John make love at Titan that night, she also knew Belle was not Roman's child. Marlena tried to comfort her daughter but she would have no part in it. Sami said she would promise her mother not to tell Roman about Belle, not because she wanted to aid Marlena, but because she didn't want to hurt her father.
On the day of Belle's christening, Marlena admitted that she had an affair with John. Stefano DiMera overheard Sami talking to Jamie about the affair, so he broke into her locker at the hospital, stole her diary, photocopied the pages in which Sami wrote about the affair, and showed them to Roman. When confronted, Sami admitted that it was all true; Marlena left Roman.
Eventually, an older friend of Carrie's, Alan Harris, showed interest in Sami. He was a bad influence on her, getting her drunk at college parties (she was only 15 at the time). One night, she offered to cook him dinner, and he asked her to pose for some "sexy pictures." When he asked her to take off her clothes, she refused; he got angry with her and raped her. Ashamed, Sami told nobody else but Jamie, and got a pregnancy and AIDS test in secret. Both came back negative.
Carrie and Marlena found out about the rape, and convinced her to press charges. Since she had waited a long time, there was no more physical evidence, and in two trials, the case was dismissed. Sami became a pariah at school, and no one would talk to her except for Jamie. In addition, a tabloid magazine printed a story calling Sami a liar. Humiliated, she distanced herself from Marlena and slapped Carrie's face, intent on making her sister pay for her shame.
Sami tried to lure Austin away from Carrie yet again, under the guise of playing the innocent victim. She set up what looked like another attack; Jamie called Austin, who rescued her and immediately took pity on her. Lucas, who had since tried to join forces with Sami, was disgusted and disowned her. Carrie suspected that Sami was crying wolf and refused to give him a telephone message from Sami, who was down at the docks. Alan had also found out that Sami was crying wolf, so he appeared at the pier that night with a gun, intent on raping her once again. Sami and Alan struggled with the gun and she managed to seize control of the pistol. Alan taunted her, saying she didn't have the guts to shoot him. Sami pulled the trigger and shot him in the groin. The tabloids got wind of the story and published an exposé with the headline "Sami Brady Bobbittizes Alan Harris!"
Before Alan left town, he told Carrie that Sami had been crying wolf the whole time. Furious, Carrie slapped Sami's face; Austin walked in, became angry with Carrie, and broke up with her. Sensing opportunity, Sami befriended a nurse who spoke of a drug that could give a man amnesia after making love, so he would not remember what happened. While Austin was out partying with friends, Sami drugged a beer at his apartment, had him drink it, and had him make love to her. Sami was wearing Carrie's perfume so Austin had assumed, in his drunken state, that he was having sex with Carrie. In the morning, Austin was horrified. Sami told him that he had confessed his love to her but he told her that was not true. Austin swore Sami to secrecy that she would not tell Carrie about that night. Earlier, however, Sami had made love with Lucas Roberts, and was now pregnant with his child. Marlena, ill in the hospital with anemia, told Sami to sleep with Austin again (in reality, at this time, Marlena had become possessed by the devil). When Sami tried to seduce Austin, he made it clear that he only liked Sami as a friend. Ashamed, Sami informed Jamie that she was leaving town, and boarded a train for Los Angeles. Sami was missing for many months, and came back the day of Carrie and Austin's wedding (they had since reconciled). She was waiting to object to the marriage during the ceremony, but Mickey Horton found her and announced to everyone that she was alive. Sami pretended to faint and informed Carrie that Austin had slept with her, and now she was "carrying his child." Although it was a lie, it made Carrie very angry with Austin, and Carrie called the wedding off.
After the birth of Will and the reveal that he was Lucas's son due to their one night of lovemaking in the Photo Lab, Sami and Austin parted ways and she became engaged to Franco Kelly. On the night of their wedding Sami found out Franco had cheated on her with a stripper and declared "I'm going to kill him." Later, Franco was found murdered by Sami; she fainted and though Lucas killed him in Kate's defense, Kate planted the gun on Sami and thus Sami was convicted and sentenced to death. While strapped to the table, moments away from receiving lethal injection, it was revealed that Sami did not kill Franco. She was eventually cleared and released.
Sami became engaged to Brandon Walker and with his help regained full custody of Will; before Sami regained custody, it was Kate who convinced Lucas to take him away from Sami.
Sami was engaged to Lucas Roberts in 2004 and they planned to marry. Because Kate Roberts drugged her and with the help of Eugenia put her in bed with Brandon, Lucas walked in an assumed the worst. The engagement was called off, then Sami dressed like a man, "Stan" to prove her innocence, but in the process, she managed to do several misdeeds and was unknowingly working for Tony DiMera. Eventually, she was able to prove that Kate was lying and Lucas proposed to her again. At their wedding, Kate exposed Sami's secret and Sami was once again alone. Austin gave her a shoulder to cry on and Sami believed that she was falling in love with Austin again. However, she also knew that Carrie was his true love, so when Carrie eventually came back to town, she and Lucas set it up where Austin would buy out Carrie's company, HighStyle, and that would, in turn, make Carrie hate Austin and allow Lucas to be with Carrie and Sami, with Austin. Once day while Carrie was checked into the office, Sami blackmailed Lexie. She threatened to tell Abe about Lexie's affair with Tek if she didn't come up with some reason why Carrie can't be with Austin. Lexie soon told Carrie that any child that she and Austin would conceive would have congenital defects, driving Carrie to pick Lucas over Austin. Sami was eventually with Austin and shortly after he popped the question to her, she and Austin received a new neighbor, an English race car driver named E.J. Wells, who was immediately smitten for Sami. They soon developed a close friendship and a guilty Sami confided in E.J. regarding her secret, after receiving several notes and calls from a mysterious gloved hand. She received one the day she was to marry Austin, but called it off to avoid humiliation. E.J. comforted her and they kissed for the first time. The next day, Will didn't show up for school and Sami feared that he was kidnapped, so she told Lucas, Austin and Carrie about the notes she received (but not the reasoning behind it). Sami and Lucas went on TV, courtesy of Mythic Communications, to plea to the child abductor to return Will to safety. However, Will came home and revealed that he actually ran away from home to avoid embarassment at school after Sami's latest wedding disaster. Realizing that Will needed a stable environment, Lucas and Will moved in with Sami (while Will was gone, Lucas discovered that Carrie cheating on him with Austin). Soon enough, the infamous gloved hand slid another note under Sami's door and despite her efforts to keep it to herself, Lucas picked it up and discovered the truth about Sami's blackmail. She and Carrie got into a fight and Carrie swore to tell everyone about this sick deed. Lucas and Will moved out again and her entire family abanded her, for they were too caught up in thier own lives to worry about Sami's life. She found comfort once again with E.J., who she believed was the only person to understand her and accept her for who she is. Unknown to Sami, E.J. actually came to Salem to bring grief to the "good people of Salem" (especially the Bradys); he is Elvis Junior Welles - the son of Steffano DiMera and Susan Banks, and he's working for his father. For a time, he was in cahoots with Kate, whom he slept with. In his conversations with Kate, it was revealed that she had hired him to seduce Sami on Kate's behalf, to keep her away from Kate's sons, Lucas and Austin. Gradually, Sami became aware of E.J.'s relationship to Patrick Lockhart, and his dealings with Steffano. He convinced Sami to work for him, but during a business trip Sami overheard him in a burst of anger and became frightened. Confessing her worries to Lucas, she eventually mended fences with her mother, father and John Black and went undercover in an attempt to bring E.J. down. Her attempt to work with the Salem PD resulted in the shooting of John Black, moments after Sami and Lucas had made love. There was a cave-in at the cabin the two of them had been saying at, and E.J. came upon her as she searched for help. In return for saving Lucas' life, he forced Sami to have sex with him. Soon after this night, it was discovered that Sami was pregnant. It was revealed that E.J. had his own motivation for wanting to impregnate Sami; he needs the baby's stem cells to aid a failing Steffano, who he's vowed to keep alive and well. After the rescue, Lucas discovered that Sami was preganant - overjoyed, he proposed. While Sami hovered on the edge of anxiety, they prepared for their nuptuials while EJ wormed information about her pregnancy out of her...and Celeste hinted that perhaps killing E.J. is the best solution to her problems. Sami's attempt on E.J.'s life - drugging him in a sauna, then dousing him with lighter fluid and trying to set him on fire - failed. After being poised between E.J and Lucas for weeks, Sami and Lucas married on May 16th, 2007, despite the fact that E.J. and Kate attended the nuptuials. During the reception, Kate slipped a slide of Sami and E.J. in a car on the day of the cave-in. Lucas took Sami's side, smashing a piece of wedding cake in his mother's face. Sami also cold-cocked EJ on her way out of the ceremony. At the hotel, Sami revealed all to Lucas about the circumstances of his accident and the rape. Lucas comforted Sami and declared that he loved her no matter what. The happy couple honeymooned in Louisianna helping to re-build structures in New Orleans. To Sami's amazement, she stumbled across a cache of letters in one of the houses which revealed that the structure they were restoring was once Maision Blanche, Steffano DiMera's hideout! Sami pocketed the letters and brought them back to Salem. Sami was then kidnapped from her honeymoon by a reluctant EJ, on the orders of Tony DiMera - she was chloroformed and the plan was to have stem cells removed from her baby to save Steffano DiMerra's life. Sami was rescued, only to be kidnapped once again by Bart, a Dimerra henchman. This time both Lucas and EJ rescued her. It was discovered through the letters that the source of the DiMerra/Brady feud was a long-ago affair between Sami's great-aunt and Steffano's grandfather, which resulted in (according to the Dimerras) the framing of Steffano's father Santo for murder or (according to the Bradys) the murder of Colleen Brady at a jealous Santo's hands. Steffano offered to end the feud if Sami would raise her child as a DiMerra and get together with EJ, but both she and EJ resisted this edict. Sami then discovered Anna DiMerra on the docks and brought her back into the fold. The Bradys began working together to gain Santo's letters to Colleen to find out who is truly responsible for her murder. Sami then had an amneo to determine if her twins -a boy and a girl - were Lucas' or EJ's. Kate blackmailed lab tech Nick Fallon to fudge the tests to make EJ the father. Sami was devistated by the thought that she might be carrying one or two little DiMerras. Meanwhile, Nick ran an independent test on the babies to ease his own concious. He was going to tell Sami the results when a bomb planted nearby by Steffano went off - in saving Sami Nick recieved temporary amnsesia. A third kidnapping by Steffano by a box of knock-out gas resulted in Doctor Rolf discovering that Sami's twins weren't a genetic match to the DiMerra's; both twins were Lucas'! A disgusted Steffano had Sami sewn back up and delievered back to Salem. Once Lucas learned the happy news from Nick, who recalled the information and informed everyone of the truth, it became clear that Kate had known the information all along. Sami and Lucas ostracized both Kate and EJ from their lives. Wanting back into Sami's life, EJ locked Lucas in a refrigerator truck, hoping to kill his foe once and for all. Sami quickly became suspicious, and found her husband before he died. Unfortunately temporarily parilyized, Lucas and Sami continued to boisterously celebrate their reunion. Santo and Colleen's letters eventually revealed a forbidden, star-crossed love affair in which the virginal nun was seduced by the wealthy businessman. Due to Steffano's deception of Shawn Sr., Colleen eventually went mad and jumped to her presumed death. Steffano revealed that the only way for the feud to end would be for Sami to marry EJ. With Steffano on his deathbed and Andre dead via suicide, Sami resisted this edict. They went back and forth over the decision, with EJ insisting Sami's family would never be safe unless they went through with the annulment/divorce. This fact was hammered home when Sami's stepfather, John Black, was run over by an unknown assailant and died. Sami comforted her mourning mother, and it was at her appartment that Sami went into labor. Lucas arrived just in time to witness the births - the delivery of their son, John Roman, was uncomplicated, but their daughter - Alice Caroline - came into the world with her umbilical chord wrapped around her neck. Kate and EJ entered the room moments after the twins' birth, and EJ declared that the twins didn't look alike, setting up the possibility of his having fathered one of them. EJ gradually became obsessed with the idea that Sami's son was his biologically, referring to him as "Giovanni". Though Sami didn't want her to, Marlena ran another DNA test on the children. Meanwhile, Kate feigned a threat against her life, convincing Lucas to go through with the annulment. It was discovered that the girl is biologically Lucas' and the boy is EJ's. Once legally sepparated from Lucas, Sami began to plan her wedding to EJ. Something sinister lurked on the fringes of the "happy occasion", and EJ was shot during the ceremony. Parilyzed from the waist down, he began to turn ovr a new leaf while suspicion loomed over the shooting. Colleen began to visit Sami in dreams and encourage her to follow her heart, but she remained trapped between the two men. EJ was briefly comotose after the shooting, but recovered and appeared to be wheelchair-bound. A guilt-ridden Sammi continued with the marriage, living with the possibility that Lucas may have tried to shoot her intended and that EJ tended to spy on the two of them. It was soon revealed that EJ was faking his paralyisis. An angry Sami ran back to Lucas, only to have Lucas confess to shooting EJ on his wedding day. Lucas was put on trial and sentanced to twenty years to life for attempted murder. EJ, meanwhile, witnessed his father holding John Black hostage and wiping his mind. Horrified, he vowed to sepparate himself from his father and turn over a new leaf. Eventually, it was discovered that John was the biological son of Colleen and Santos - he took his place among the DiMeras and began wreaking havoc. Meanwhile, Sami and EJ tried to form a cohesive unit and take care of the twins in Lucas' absence; EJ took a job with Mickey Horton's law firm, The two of them moved in - along with the twins - together at the Dimerra Mansion, and they married as a way to solve EJ's immigration woes. They slowly began to devlop feelings for each other, eventually kissing. They hashed out their conficted emotions about EJ's earlier rape of Sami and ended up in bed - unfortunately on the same day Lucas was unexpectedly released. To add to the mess, EJ is currently drawn to Sami's old rival, the recently-returned Nicole, and Lucas has begun sleeping with Chloe.
