I do love that Laura has a penthouse set appropriate to her stature - I wondered for a time if it was Todd's old penthouse from OLTL all the way from NYC but I highly doubt that; I assume it's actually Sonny's old penthouse redone. There is karmic justice to me in Mayor Laura having his giant space while he is relegated to a single paltry room tricked up to vaguely give the impression of his old one.

Erica's abortion happened the week of May 10, 1971 before Roe vs. Wade but after New York had made it legal with certain stipulations.

Erica tells Jeff that she wants an abortion, he is almost on board until his father Joe talks him out of it. Erica tells him to either arrange one by proper means (meaning in New York) or she would seek one by improper means (In Pine Valley) He doesn't and she does.

I remember this. I watched this storyline on TV when it first aired.  I remember the dialogue about New York being a place where it was legal.

I was mystified when people were posting here that it was 1972 or 1973.

The Hunted Lady - Pilot (Suspense) ABC Television Movie - 1977 Donna Mills

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hunted_Lady

The wikipedia article says it was a intended as a pilot for a TV series, but the series wasn't picked up, so they released it as a "tv movie" instead.

Found it on youtube, it didn't load well, but I got the first few minutes.  She appears at 3.:30 wearing a policewoman's uniform.  The type of uniform made as a dress instead of trousers/shirt. 
screengrab:

fyi  @slick jones

She says in the SOD interview that it was super cold in Toronto and that she'd told her husband she wanted to go somewhere warm on vacation for a week or two, and then the call came to do Y&R, so she did that instead.  She didn't like leaving her children in Toronto but there was no time to arrange for them to be in L.A. so she went alone.  She said that by the time she returned home, the weather in Toronto had warmed a little bit, so it was as if she'd brought the warmth home.  From all of that ... I *speculate* that she was in L.A. for at least a week, but I don't know how many episodes she taped. So yeah a brief arc, but more than a single episode.

I am sure she got a standard recurring/guest pay. 

Sure but last-minute international airfare from Toronto must have been expensive.   I hope her arc is at least a couple of weeks so that she made good money!

My guess is a dayplayer that did not work out, so they went to Morgan to come on.

Yeah that's the only thing that makes sense here.  But I mean, asking the goddess Mishael to be a last-minute replacement?  They better have paid her well.

INTERVIEW with Mishael
https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/exclusive-mishael-morgan-amanda-on-her-young-and-restless-comeback/

Holy sh!t, she says they asked her back as a very-last-minute replacement for someone.  They contacted her on a Thursday, she said yes on Friday, and was on the plane on Monday.  She confirms she lives in Toronto and went to L.A. to film this arc.

I wonder who was originally written to be Jill's attorney?

Christian Le Blanc is airing the same week as the Newman family attorney (regarding Claire/Jordan/etc) so I doubt that Amanda would be replacing Michael.

I thought Vail Bloom's Heather already worked for Devon and Lily? Or does she?  So I don't think Heather would have been Jill's attorney?  (It's hard to keep track of who works for/with whom on this show).

Deidre interviewed about the Pawn storyline
https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/exclusive-deidre-hall-dishes-about-the-pawn-story-on-days-of-our-lives 

Good interview.  She talks about Marlena believing in John.

She also says, re: John: "Well, he doesn’t even exactly know what that past is at this point. I mean, Konstantin has sort of mind-controlled him a bit. But John does go off on a mission to clear his name in Greece. So, there is a tale to all this that goes on a bit."

I'm not saying he looks bad ... exactly. I guess I think he looks like a type, and that type is surfer dude. 

He actually is a surfer dude - see the SOD interview with Adam Harrington

I can't figure it out. What is a BDW & a SW? 

breakdown writer and scriptwriter

I have no explanation for the stupid storyline.

However, that picture of Mishael is wonderful.  As always, she is a goddess!

And wow, they have her wearing the same blouse she wore on her last visit in March. 
I mean she dazzles in it but still.

Rape is not *only* an act of physical force, that's the old idea.

It's an act committed without the conscious aware consent of both parties.
If one party is aware that the other is unaware and goes ahead anyhow, then it's not legal consent.  Without legal consent, it's rape.
