Thanks lol! I am still a few days behind because I never have time to watch on hulu!!

FV block tapes so I assume they could have drug the story out longer once ES was finished.

I suppose FV and CVE were hoping Viki/ES nostalgia would be enough to grab viewers.

Well, that makes even less sense the show feels the need to use her as Susan.

If the show INSISTS on using SH and Susan they could really have just burned some guarantees by having her be at the baby shower. Is she too busy giving out premonitions to see her grandson's baby? I am just going to assume Paulina and Marlena "forgot" to invite her lol.

It would have made a lot more sense to have Ronnie introduce a new Monica extended relative and go along with this scheme for her family member rather than team up with random stranger Martin.

The Ronnie story was an unnecessary time waste. We all knew how it would end and it really has no long term affects. Outside of throwing Tracy under the bus, viewers will forget about this in a few months. Ronnie will never be mentioned again, Tracy will reconcile with the Q's, and Martin will be practicing law soon enough. ES did a nice job with a nothing character, which is great. She'll probably get another emmy. On the other hand, numerous stories have been completely stalled and have lost momentum. I am not advocating more characters, but even if Ronnie had brought a son/daughter or a grand kid that was behind this scheme and stayed in PC causing trouble after it would have at least some purpose.

I thought it was meant for Alex too. Cat makes a bit more sense since she works for the ISA, but it definitely looked like the man was going toward Alex on Friday.

When was it Carly and Jax's house? Was it when Morgan/Michael were still kids? I can only remember the last house they had with the big staircase. I am terrible with sets though, so Carly/Jax could have lived in 10 homes and I'd only remember one lol.

Yeah, I don't even know. Like I edited in the above post I got 3 different explanations of the whole fiasco.

Possibly? I think it was for the Dimera's, but for some reason I thought it was stolen or knock off designer goods after watching some scenes back. I have no proof though lol. I just briefly googled the whole thing and Chelsea's bio said that Touch the sky Airlines was a front for designer knock offs for the Dimeras. Jett Carver's bio says illegal smuggling. And a character named Kai Rawlings was allegedly smuggling women through the airline, but these women were actually working for him and con artists. And then made Stephanie and Max jump out of the plane So I don't know if that helps at all. I think I am more confused.

Not even that. They appear so infrequently I almost forget they are a couple. Their scenes are usually so brief and shallow. At least it seems like the Dalton story is picking back up now that Britt is involved😑

The internet says June-Oct 2007, so 4-5 months appears to be correct. It seemed so much longer. I am trying to remember what the airline was a front for. I said drugs earlier, but I think it was much sillier like knock off handbags lol. I am sure someone here knows.

I watched and the OLTL mention and scenes were very brief. Not too bad. If I hadn't been clobbered over the head with OLTL shout outs since Frank took over, I may have even thought it was cute. I still think the Gio/Emma scenes could have been extended instead though. Overall, the episode was good especially considering the warnings I got. Hopefully the Ronnie story will be wrapping up shortly. For some reason I thought it would go on longer, but I guess it really was a short run for ES.

I don't know why anyone would think a story about flying to Vegas as a cover for a drug ring? was a good idea for the younger set lol.

It was only four months? It seemed longer lol. It wasn't a single bad act Jeremy committed with that hot tub scene. He was genuinely awful to Stephanie and everyone else.

Lol! Well, I only have youtube tv and can't watch any Disney channels as of today, so I guess I have to catch it on hulu if I feel like it. I guess I was unintentionally saved.

Great. I was already annoyed with the OLTL reference so I am prepared.

I will PM it to you.

It was strange because they didn't appear to know one another. Obviously, they do, but the show didn't even acknowledge it in any capacity. Not even a good to see you again. Carrie was engaged to his father lol.

I haven't really seen Susan even try to mend fences between them nor is she involved with Johnny/Chanel's adoption, so is she there for Marlena's story? I didn't even understand her last scenes with Stephanie. She was happy about someone being murdered like in Stephanie's book? It didn't seem like a warning. It appeared like she was excited? So odd... Kristen has been spent for years. She is a character who can pop in and out for arcs, but she has no long-term purpose. At this point Marlena's fairly hands on with Rachel so Kristen isn't necessary.

Oh, I don't think Brady told her. Rachel just seems like the type of child that lurks around and eavesdrops on conversations.

I assumed it was her little brother too. I can't believe Rachel has yet to tell Cooper Choi how evil and psychotic his sister is. You'd think she'd care more about what happened to Tate rather than petty drama with Chad/Cat.

I haven't watched today's episode yet, so maybe it was a cleared up but has Susan ever mentioned why she's still in town? Doesn't she have a life and a husband wherever she lives? She came for Johnny's trial and that's been over for weeks. I always think Susan is unnecessary, but there is truly not a single reason for her to be around.

Totally fair. I just find Portia very unlikeable at times, but I know the writing is slanted against her. It's like Curtis makes her miserable and she basically better with anyone else in scenes. Jason tripping Drew made me LOL. Britt, being unable to tell lemonade wasn't alcohol as a Dr. and supposedly intelligent person was odd. Even if you can't taste it you can smell it.
