ABOUT:
Danny Santos came to Springfield in 1998 to find out who killed his
brother, Mick, and then kill them. When Danny found out that it was
Michelle Bauer who had killed his brother, he decided to marry her
in an attempt to save her. Carmen, Danny and Mick's evil mother, was
furious when she found out about what her son had done. However,
Danny stood up to his mother, and eventually, he and Michelle fell
in love.
Danny is a true romantic who loved Michelle with all his heart. The
two made it through many tough times, including Carmen framing
Michelle for murder, as well as the advances of Teresa Sandoval.
Danny even gave up the family mob business for her, as well as
helped to rescue her father from Africa. Regrettably, after a series
of unfortunate events, Michelle was involved in a warehouse accident
which left her with amnesia. The two had trouble remaining
"connected" and became separated. Michelle became involved with his
cousin Tony for a while, even though Danny and Michelle were trying
to get their life back.
Michelle left town for a while, and Danny dated Marina. Danny
discovered that Michelle had been kidnapped, so he rescued her, and
she started to get her memory back. They were still going to
divorce, until he rescued her again, and her memory came back
completely. They were still not back together, even though they made
love. Danny struggled with Tony, which resulted in Michelle saving
Danny (and Tony falling to his death). Michelle left town. Later,
Dinah appeared on Danny's doorstep with a child called Hope, saying
it was his and Michelle's baby, stolen by Edmund. He rescued her
again, and eventually they reconciled and remarried. They moved away
to help her father, Ed, with recovery efforst in the gulf coast, and
then they all moved to Springfield. They moved back in 2009 as the
show ended.
Although Danny was a gruff and tough mobster at one time, there was
always a soft side to him. For example, when he came across a
troubled youth named Nico, he allowed Nico to stay with him to help
get his life back on track. Danny has always made sure that his wife and children were well
taken care of, even when they were fighting or having other
problems.
