Marlena Evans

Dr. Marlena Evans (born October 7, 1956) is a character on Days of Our Lives. Deidre Hall, the only actress to play Marlena, has done so from 1976-1987 and 1991-present.

Through the course of her existence on the program, Marlena has experienced what some consider to be the most outrageous circumstances of any character in soap opera history.

This list includes, but is not limited to, possession by the devil, a fall from a 30th-story-window (which she survived), being used as a surrogate mother for genetically engineered babies during a (four-year) coma, being hypnotized to believe she was a serial killer, and falling down stairs, which led to a miscarriage - and hysterical amnesia. She has also been kidnapped numerous times in the past 30 years.

Days of Our Lives Quotes

I don't know how Rafe mansplained this to you, but I was upset over losing Will and he was upset over losing you and we were just two exes trying to comfort each other.

Sami

Abigail: You knew it was my alter. Gabi, I have apologized to you a thousand times. I never meant to hurt you.
Gabi: But I do want to hurt you, Abigail. I do. Because you, you just keep on leading this amazing, great life, and I'm the one who keeps getting screwed. You didn't even get punished for what you did, you didn't even get a slap on the wrist. You even told Chad you wanted to be punished. You're welcome. And yes, I did drug you, and yes I did put this wig on your head to make sure you were having a relapse. Hold the applause.
Abigail: Why are you confessing all this now?
Gabi: Because you can't do anything about it. I have you exactly where I want you.
Abigail: Well, you know I'm gonna tell everybody that you confessed.
Gabi: Oh like you told everybody about my last so-called confession at the courts? No one is gonna believe anything that you say, because what you said came out of a crazy person's mouth.
