Uh oh...and OF COURSE Kristen Dimera...I mean Hayley gets to tell Bill about Dani/Andre. lol. Well since Nicole found out about the marriage at the hospital...Ashley probably already knows as well. I love how this episode is going. The focus is on Doug/Vanessa/Joey. But Dani/Andre are giving great backup B plot. And the fact they have no idea that everyone knows about them is delicious. OMG Vanessa WENT THERE with Joey.

I was about to say the same. My co-worker is always about how over the top those shows are. My shock at finding out Angela Bassett was on there, made me peek in on a few episodes. I liked it. And since Nashville is another home for me, I might peek in on this as well.

Now that someone said it aloud...yeeeah we have been loooong overdue for a Dani storyline where she pulls an antic. Oooo we got the twins' name. Lord...this is a mess.

Awww...so they are keeping the throughline of Hayley and Caroline being friends. GOOD. You betta act, Lauren!!! I am feeling her as Jacob tells her about Doug. I still shockingly still in disbelief. Oh, shut up, Marcel. Hehe. Jump the broom. OMG! The impersonator already spilled the tea?

VANNNNNESSSSSSSA!!!!!!!!!!! The sounds!! OMG! So Doug's really dead?

Here we go...I saw the D&W Thread. hehe. Annnnd I get some live time today!!! YES, PLEASE. KM is giving me life in this yellow.

Very true. In a story spot that Thomas (like him or not) should be in. Very good to hear.

LOL. I spoke too soon too when I typed that and got to the end of the episode. Yeeeah this could have all waited until after all the much better Monica scenes...though it was a good cliffhanger.

eyeroll

@Faulkner and I were just discussing this yesterday. So much has been going on that would be better enhanced by using so many relationship developments. Martin/Ted, Andre/Kat, and until recently Hayley/Caroline (for example) were relationships that would have so helped get some POVs and established character out there. But turned into missed opportunities.

Uh that's a lie. Martin has a FOINE assistant that we saw a couple of times that goes over his political stuff. And outside of that, we have seen him have congressman moments by his phone. And it's plausible usually when he does have said phone calls at his house...and not once have I felt he needed an office...though yes, that would be nice.

Wait a minute! Is Nathan the person who Lulu had the random car crash that started the week and felt so abrupt like I missed an episode with? If so...UGH. They couldn't even build up the story, could they?

Hehe. I understand. re: rewatch And they are going to keep writing her like she had no character development before she died...same.

Same

Oh, no...that part (Sidwell messing with the cream) I do remember seeing. Well, him talking about it as a way of removing the voice of reason...which Maxie has actually become...so he can get his hooks into Deception even more. I just don't seem to remember them actually doing an exit for Maxie. But I might have missed an episode or two...that was a very busy work week. Yeah...Nathan could have waited. If Britt needed a prop (or an arc)...her dealing with coming back to her old life whether it's fighting to get her job back, fighting with her mother who feels rightfully deceived, or exploring things with Jason...are all good ways to do something with her. Though they have been leaning into propping her since she hit PC.

I mean it could be Lulu again, but as has been mentioned Dante/Lulu are the money couple so nope. And I wouldn't do him with Willow, either. With our luck, he would wind up with Jacinta.

You know what? Since you are singing my song, let me sit by you. Same. I was looking forward to it and I'm worried I won't even make it through Friday because outside of the scenes dealing with Monica, everything else on the show is making me see RED.

I mean when you put it like this...then why even start the story? You are completely right. I guess I was not playing attention or missed a few episodes, but Maxie is off screen and in a coma due to Sidwell? If she is not waking up any time soon, this Nathan story could have waited because with no end in sight...they are going to have to sccccccrattttch the plot. I liked RP, but he's not strong enough as an actor to do that. They would have been better focusing on who they should be focusing on right now...MONICA.

It isn't for me, either. However, given the influx of the Obrecht clan and her place in it as a voice of reason (surprisingly), it does feel odd to me to see them all coming back and her not being there. VERY.

Sidenote...I thought that was you who suggested that. I have come around to that even though I like what is happening so far, but it just would have been sooooo much better if they did this with June FIRST. I am curious to see how tomorrow is handled. This show IMHO tend to treat Thursday like a Thursday in terms of the main plot of the week being background for that one day of the week before going back to focus on Friday. I hope that is what this actual Monday was so we are just continuing building up the Doug/Vanessa/Joey suspense.

OH???

I'm not ready for Joey to go, but if he is the one behind Doug's death, his relationship with Vanessa is OVER. HAPPY SEVEN MONTHS!!!! HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!! Perhaps it's because I keep coming across applications where they want me to title an autobiography, but this tingled me.

Oh, no DOUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGG!!!! That said...good cliffhanger given what Marcel has already done. Today continued to prove that Doug/Vanessa/Joey is strong enough to be the center of attention. Take that limelight and run with it.

RHOM REUNION TRAILER!!!

OH...???
