The many faces of Terell Ransome Jr. on DOOL

Terrell Ransome Jr. is enjoying his second time around on Days of Our Lives on Peacock. He is currently portraying Jerry Prentiss an actor who was hired by Nurse Whitley (Kim Coles). Whitley had Prentiss pretend he is Theo Carver II (Cameron Johnson) a character the 20-year-old actually portrayed from 2008-2015.

Lexie Carver (Renee Jones) named their son Theo II after Abe's brother the first Theo Carver a good friend of Bo Brady ( Peter Reckell). Theo was shot by crooked cop Richard Gates (Rusty Cundieff) and died in Abe's arms.

As Jerry, Ransome is doing triple duty as he is also portraying a character on the soap Body and Soul that Whitley has Abe Carver (James Reynolds) interested in. Abe has been watching the soap opera on television while being held prisoner in Nurse Rachett's apartment. On Friday Whitley threw Jerry under the bus by implying to Steve Johnson (Stephen Nichols) that Prentiss was at the hospital and kidnapped Abe. At the very same moment, 40 Jerry was telling Lani Prince (Sal Stowers) that Whitley was the kidnapper.

Will Jerry leave town or stick around?

Lani knows the truth and went to Whitley's apartment on Monday to confront her. She tried to tell Abe the truth but he was not able to comprehend. The dingy nurse showed up and stuck Lani with a needle. She fell to the floor and Whitley will probably escape with Abe.

Meanwhile, Steve and John Black (Drake Hogestyn) went to Jerry's apartment but when they kicked the door in he had already escaped. They found a bus schedule and now are racing to the bus station to stop him from leaving town. When they get there will it be too late and Prentiss has taken off for parts unknown or will they catch him and make a deal or will he go to prison?

Spoilers indicate that Whitley will have a complete breakdown this week and it will come to light that she has been a patient of Dr. Marlena Evans Black (Deidra Hall). Days of Our Lives viewers are saying on social media that they will be glad when this storyline is over because it has gone on far too long.

Terrell Ransom's Hollywood History

Ransome recently joined Coles and Reynolds via Zoom for an interview with Michael Fairman on Michael Fairman TV. The trio shared how they enjoyed working together on this particular storyline. Ransome shared how delighted he was when his agent called and said Days of Our Lives wanted him back.

He started out as a model and when local talent agents did not see his value his mother moved with him to Hollywood in 2007 and it paid off. Terrell was hired on DOOL in the role of Theo at the age of 5.

    I had fallowed days of our life many times. I see a lot of new actors that I get confused. So it’s great when I read your update reviews and predictions. I thought screen writers are on strike? I wonder who is writing this day time soap dialogues?
