Last night on "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver," Oliver introduced the world to a Syrian refugee teenager named Nageen Mustafa. Mustafa is one of thousands of migrants who left their home country to seek safety in Europe. The teenager was disabled from the time of her birth and was wheelchair-bound. She said that she learned to speak such good English by watching her favorite TV show, "Days of Our Lives."
The 16-year-old said that her two favorite characters were EJ and Sami and she spoke about how sad she was when EJ died on the show. Oliver thought that Mustafa had been through enough, so with the help of James Scott and Alison Sweeney, who played EJ and Sami on "Days of Our Lives," according to the Wall Street Journal, he resurrected the character of EJ!
In true Soap Opera form, EJ was brought back to life with a ridiculously awesome concept, German witch doctors.
"I just can't imagine how horrible this must be for you," Sami said of EJ's resurrection.
"It's not hard," EJ told her. "You know what is hard, getting from Syria to Germany."
"Have you seen what those migrants are going through?"
The two fictional characters then discuss how absurd the immigrant crisis was.
