..ahhh..can't wait for Monday's show! I didn't think she'd use it so soon! I wonder who she shot? Alan, maybe??? And how did her picture of the prison room get deleted?

I knew Olivia wasn't behind Springfield burns but what is this about "family first?" At first, I thought it was referring to how she was determined to save her daughter instead of Ava during that fire but I think this is about something else.

Cassie has come a long way from trying to tear Tammy & Jonathan apart to being happy for them. I can't believe she came out to them about her and Josh. The look on Jon's face..man, it looks could kill. I think he understands, though that if Josh & Cassie KNEW about Reva's cancer and the fact that she is dying, they wouldn't have gone there..I wish he'd just tell Josh already.

They really do make it seem like Reva is the love of Billy's life the way he cries over her and seems to be one of the few people Reva can confide in and depend on. Unfortunately, I still think he's too much of a lapdog but I do admit I felt bad for him. Jordan Clarke did a great job in those scenes.

Dare I say that *maybe* we're about to get the reveal that many viewers have speculated about for a long time now --- Ava is really Olivia's child that she had young and gave away (Hence the "labor day" mention).

I wonder if Lizzie shot Beth. Would Alan have just walked into Lizzie's room while she's sleeping? Alan is obcessed with this baby, but I'm not sure he would just barge in on her like that. Seems more like something a mother would do. Maybe I'm just over thinking it.

Still, if Alan's out of commission who will try to have Lizzie committed? I'm just guessing, but it seems like this shooting was a set up for Alan to get Lizzie where he wants her. I thought for sure she would shoot Tammy or Jon, but they seemed to be with Olivia and Josh.

That look Jon gave Josh and Cassie was intense. I kind of felt bad for him because he's trying to respect his mother's wishes, but it's long past time someone tell the truth here. Anyone!

I watched and this was better than usual, I might stick around next week. The big Beacon opening would be better with more people, but they did a good job with what they had. Ava's haircut is very becoming on her.

HATE Reva, but love Billy so thats the only reason Iw atch this story. Also hate Jammy and Jonathan.

It would be such a waste if they didn't reveal that Ava is Olivia's daughter. They've already established how much these two hate each other. Olivia left Ava to die when the Beacon was on fire to save her daughter...imagine how she is going to feel when she finds out she actually left her other daughter?? Michelle Ray Smith is not the best actress on the show but I like her when she's in scenes with Crystal Chappell...they play rival characters really well.

Lizzie shooting Beth? Hmm..I don't know about that one. If she did shoot Alan, it is predictable but I like the whole "what comes around goes around" aspect of it all. Alan shot his son and pays by later being shot by his granddaughter.

I thought Tom Pelphrey did a great job with Jonathan's reaction to finding out about Josh & Cassie being an item. Jonathan is such a Reva cheerleader I hate it sometimes but I think he gets why Josh would reach his breaking point and not care anymore and he knows HE'S partly to blame because he knows the truth and still won't let Josh & Cassie in on Reva's disease. TP played the anger and guilt really well in that scene. I really liked how the whole Josh & Cassie thing isn't completely black-and-white. What makes their actions so despicable (aside from the fact that they are having an affair) is the fact that they are going behind Reva's back while she's dying of cancer but the thing is, they don't know that Reva's sick and aren't intentionally trying to hurt someone who's dying.

Nice banner, Junkie.

Does anyone know if Tom or Stephanie are leaving the show?

I would LOL if Lizzie shoots Alan. I have a bad feeling about that baby though. Alan is so obsessed w/ it...I don't think it will make it. Something's going to happen to it, and I bet Alan's going to be the cause of it.

UGH. Cannot stand MEva anymore. Too bad Billy's involved, so I can't FF through her scenes. Jonathan needs to tell Josh the truth...not that I want him to go crawling back to Reva when he finds out that she's sick, but this whole thing is getting PATHETIC! It just doesn't make sense. Pretty much everybody in Springfield knows that Reva has cancer except for the people who should have known first.

Nice banner, Junkie.

Thanks!

Does anyone know if Tom or Stephanie are leaving the show?

I keep hearing that they're both gone at the end of this year but as far as I know, they are just rumours.

I'm going to continue this convo on another thread. Ciao for now.
