Gone so soon? Aaron and Tate have officially made the switch on Days of Our Lives today, and instead of Brady and Theresa’s wayward teen heading off to lacrosse camp for the next three months, his friend hopped on the plane and left. (You can read the recap here.

Aaron, folks might remember, was the first of the Greenes to show up, followed by sister Felicity and big brother Dr. Mark Greene. So is he the first to leave as well?

It’s not entirely clear if this is the end of Aaron or not. He could be back once summer is over, or even before then, depending on how fast Holly and Tate’s scheme is discovered. But at the same time, he wouldn’t be the first character shipped off to camp, never to return.

Still, we get the feeling the Greenes are going to be sticking around for a bit. We were a bit worried about Felicity for a bit when Johnny and Chanel were leaving, but with that exit reversed, there’s still a chance to see more of her. And with Tripp off in Hong Kong yet, the Salem University Hospital could definitely use Dr. Greene’s medical expertise or Kayla and Sarah will be stuck treating everyone. Plus, it still seems like something may spark between him and Leo.

Plus, Felicity’s portrayer, Kennedy Garcia, seemed to tease that we’d be meeting the Greenes’ parents at some point. And last week, Aaron mentioned his mom was having a Fourth of July picnic he had to get to.

Our hope is still that their parents will have a deeper tie to characters already on the canvas than we realize. New families and new blood are always welcome, but if the Greenes are going to stick around, they’re going to have to be integrated into Salem more fully and make the case that they’re an essential part of the canvas.

What do you think? Do you want the Greenes to stick around or are you OK if they already fade away?
