Soap Opera Digest gives a little more detail on this scene. I can just picture it! Brook and Derek have both agreed that Brock should be the one to tell his mother about Derek‘s upcoming marriage to Jill. It was the hardest thing Brock ever had to do but it was something that had to be done, and the results are, more or less, what he expected. Kay is shattered. She starts crumbling right before his eyes. She cries that can't be. She can’t lose Derek. --He‘s the only-reason she‘s living. Without him there's no purpose, no meaning,- for her life. She knows what she needs now—a nice, stiff drink. Brock crushes ”his mother‘s shaking body to him and says she mustn t do that. She mustnt take a drink. It will hurt Derek deeply If he found out she began drinking again because of his marriage. He may not love her, but Kay knows he does care about her very much; Does Kay follow her son‘s advice?-. . . No way! Brock leaves the room and she runs immediately for the vodka bottle she has hidden in a drawer. She hurriedly opens the bottle, presses the top to her lips and takes two large gulps. She then vows, twisting her wedding ring as she says the words, that she‘ll never lose a second husband to Jill. Jill will not take this man away.

Considering Kevin was a sexual predator he doesn't exactly belong in the teen scene. 😅

I can't remember it exactly or who said it but I once read a quote from a soap writer that said when they write a scene, they need to keep track of what they wrote about that character weeks ago (what's on the air currently), what they've been writing that's not aired yet, what they're writing in the current episode, and what the plans are for the character in the short and long term future. It really is incredible what they do and I can understand how they focus more on motivations and storylines than remembering details like names and dates.

Love that list of quotes! Wonder if they all made it to the show. Wow that comment about if Terry Lester played Brock... I can picture it, that's fascinating. @Broderickthis is the scene where Brock returns.

Another episode from Paul Ditty! July 8, 1985

I don't keep up much with classic GH but thought this was cool. Looks like a studio copy of the episode with Laura's rape https://www.ebay.com/itm/304550831008?hash=item46e8a4e3a0:g:9PgAAOSwouNiwEKd

It was just nice to see a wedding that wasn't in the Forrester living room!

I saw today that this has now been uploaded. Thank you, whichever angel did it!

So are there no red carpets (other than Bold Live), no aftershows, or anything? Will the winners be on The Talk Monday?

@j swiftGood find! That's hilarious.

Wow, I actually thought we'd never see a location shoot after COVID again. Much less international.

The annoying thing is this is now messing with my DVR settings. It didn't record Monday's Y&R, which aired, or GH's special episode yesterday. But it always records the hearings when the show is preempted, lol. I know I can watch the shows online but it's annoying.

The way this show does "drama," they probably will have them call a truce. 😂

I felt like there was too much talking and the clips were short... if Traci is talking about being addicted to diet pills, it would be nice to see a clip! This felt more like Beth's episode than Eileen's, and I'm not complaining on that. She's such an asset to the show. Eileen has said she doesn't feel like this is her anniversary, but Ashley's, and acknowledged that other actresses played the part. Interesting how they showed the abortion confrontation scene without saying what it was about. Amazing that 35 years later, it's too controversial, lol.

Thank you for all the updates. So there's not a heating scheduled for the 17th? I hope the Abbott sisters special episode will air in full, on time.

Beth Maitland Celebrates 40 Years on Y&R

Just saw this pop up! Anything new in this set?

They should have a trial and have Sheila represent herself and grill the Forresters on the stand. Would be hilarious.

Thank you so much!

OMG those cupcakes! Love it. Nice that Don Diamont is there. I'm hoping for a special, but wouldn't they have already announced it?

Ugh! That is so not realistic. I was dealing with one of them once. They eventually negotiated to sell me a huge lot for like $2/tape which was reasonable (all unlabeled and ended up not much Y&R on it anyway). If this guy's mom was taping them without commercials that means she may have fit a lot of episodes on those tapes, God bless her. I'm definitely interested in donating towards this. I could also digitize the tapes if this guy doesn't want to do that. I'm going to have some free time this summer hopefully.

I would not have seen that in the DOOL thread, so thank you! That's a really nice, subtle way for him to get his point across.

You all are amazing! 💓

Thank you!!! And thanks to the person who provided the login! What do you mean it breaks? Like @Videnbassaid, if you can capture it at all you can do short pieces or one long file and someone will edit it. I love how this community always comes up with a way! Also, some other small news, there are some CALA episodes in folders December 1994 and January and February 1995. Unfortunately, this person was unable to record some weeks, but it's still good to have, and we will probably get it from Videoland eventually too. Thank you to the person who sent these anonymously, and the person here who helped with finding the dates and uploading them!

The vibe is like the Kevin/Jana ashram wedding.
