No, I think they are brother and sister and that Ari was involved with someone who was a recovering adict and he was hired by Stephano to kill Emily.
Emily was in protective custody with Rafe and she had just been freed – They fell in love and were to be married and was killed by Ari’s boyfriend in a mysterious way on her wedding day.
I think Rafe is still working for the FBI undercover to get the goods on the DiMera’s.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Rafe killed Ari. I don’t know why but him burning her pictures and the way he acts lead me to believe he is guilty about something. I guess we will see lol

Correction: I meant Emily, not Ari

I think that they are siblings.. they look too much alike not to be. They did a good job casting these two. I think Ari somehow caused his fiance’s death on her wedding day.. not sure how but maybe it was an accident.. and the reason that Rafe is covering up the whole thing.. is that the death was ruled unconclusive… no real proof on what happened with her to cause her death. I think Rafe is covering for his sister. She is over protective of him.. maybe she caused the fiance’s death by being too over the top protective of her brother??? Or her boyfriend caused the woman’s death but something has happened… and I am starting to see a dark side of Rafe.. which I don’t want to see happen. I want it to turn out to be a cover up for his sister somehow.

Perhaps Ari is Emily and something happened that caused her to have to fake her death and go under and assumed identity. She doesn’t want Sami to know because then the truth would be out, she doesn’t want Rafe involved with Sami because then she has to see him with another woman even though she loves him.

Maybe Meredith is Emily..i am almost sure Emily is not dead, she is actually Ari or Meredith..Of course we will see a dark side of Rafe, it would be too simple (and boring) otherwise..
I am ok for a certain investment in this mystery but Sami has also to be more independant. The writers have to write more scenes with her and her children (hello Ally is not dead Samantha !!!)
And i really hope that for her next storyline she will have a ….JOB !!!! Why not on the Spectator (her dynamic with Jack was fun or better with Chris if Jack can’t return) or at Titan in a business battle against Kate !!
Ok for the summer lovely romance with Rafe (remake Roman/Marlena) the girl needs calm and a peace environment for a while..
She will come back with EJ at the end of the storyline but he has to work really hard for that, almost everybody know they are mean to be (lot’s of signs by the writers..) they can’t be separate to each other but they still have to resolve lot’s of issues…
One thing is really really sure : this storyline is too low very too low, we already see AZ pregnancy..maybe she will go more soon that we think..

Euh i meant slow but a bit low too ..lol

I think Rafe was protecting Emily, who was being bothered by a drug lord (for whatever reason). Rafe fell in love and on the day of the wedding, the drug lord came to find them. Maybe a fight broke out and Rafe or Ari accidentally shot Emily instead of the bad guy. I think this bad guy has a connection with Stefano that’s why Rafe has it in for them.

And I agree that Sami needs a job. The last job she had that I remember was when she was like an assistant to EJ before she found out that EJ was a Dimera…that was like 3 years ago?? Where the heck is she getting her money from?

What i really want to know is when Rafe and Sami are going to get some better dialogue? I really am a fan of them, but their scenes have been PAINFUL recently – almostr like “filler” versus moving the story line ahead. And what was with Rafe’s SINGING after the shower? So stiff – again – painful.

I think Rafe was protecting Emily in protective custody and they fell in love and planned to get married. I think that Ari was in a married to a drug user. Maybe even she was involved in drugs too. On Rafe and Emily’s wedding day Emily was on the was to the church when Ari and her husband (he was driving while intoxicated) killed her in a car crash. Now he’s in jail. That’s who she’s been talking to on the phone. Maybe she’s still married.
