Members DaysnPassionsFan Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 That is definitely a hard decision for Philip, I'm sure if it was his baby, he'd have an even more difficult time, but I agree, he would've still chosen to save Belle. Kyle and Martha are going to be AMAZING! And thank God Jason won't be around for these scenes, talk about a downer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitchapalooza Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 How is it a hard decision for Philip, IMO with the way he feels about Belle's baby, it shouldn't be THAT hard for him to choose Belle and get rid of this "thing" that another man has implanted in HIS wife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 Great posts Mitch. I totally agree. In some ways, I think it is like Philip getting revenge on Shawn for Claire being his and not Philip. Philip has never wanted this child so the decision will not have him up at night. He won't have regrets. As for Belle, Claire has Shawn to take care of her and both the Brady and Black families. Belle knows she will taken care of. It is not abandonment-it is simply a mother wanting to save her child at all costs even if it means dying to save her. This is going to fantastic material for Martha, Kyle, and even the vets who will have to react to this. This is going to kill Victor because Shawn is his grandson too and he will be stuck in the middle. This is all so great. We also have Philip learning Kate and Victor knew about Claire to look forward to. As for Philip and Mimi's baby, that is supposed to be a story with Victor and Bonnie and Kate as well. I still can't figure out how they all end up fighting over the baby since Mimi will be still around but it should be great. I love Days and I love these writers. The show is just rocking!!!

Members jjjg Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 Phillip hated this baby from the start and he wanted Belle to terminate the pregnancy long ago. That was all shown on screen. The fact that Phillip will go against Belle's decision and abort her and Shawn's baby is not out of love for his wife. It's out of hate for that child, what it represented and jealousy of Shawn and Belle. That IS disgusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 I agree Phillip is obsessed with the unspoken truth everyone knows about Shawn and Belle and the baby, but I think that's a human, somewhat irrational but human reaction. I don't think Phillip necessarily 'kills' the baby or does what he does with malice, but if it's a choice between the baby, particularly Shawn and Belle's, or Belle's life, a woman he loves even if she does not love him, the fact is Phillip will of course pick Belle. Doesn't make him evil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitchapalooza Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 Yes but you are forgetting that Belle TELLS him that if anything happens she wants him to tell the doctors to save her baby, these are her wishes, this is her baby and this is her right. Philip BLATANTLY goes against those and without permission or consent from the baby's parents, ABORTS their child for selfish reasons. That is a MAJORLY wrong and Philip better pay for that!

Members Ryan Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 Man oh man, I cannot WAIT to see these scenes. I know Martha is gonna be freakin amazing. I'm telling you all now, if you want the SON Top 10 to be "fair" for that week, you need to start campaigning NOW to get people to vote for her.

Members DaysFanJean Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 When a man has a choice to save an unborn child or the mother of his living year-old child and his wife, it's only common sense that he choses her life over an innocent that would need it's own mother. I cannot see it any other way. So Belle is willing to sacrifice seeing Claire off to her first day of school, abondon her when she is a teen desparately needing motherly advice, completely run away from seeing her married and cut herself off forever from her grandchildren. That is the most demented thing I could think of. This is not a great story. It is plot driven just for the sake of the Shawn and Belle fans because believe me there is nothing with Shawn and Belle except their fans. Now, if this were plot driven for Philip and Belle fans, what would you say? I think it is a Philip and Belle plan, not a Shawn and Belle plan. If Belle gets angry with Philip she needs to see her mother for professional help. Also, if Philip were destroyed by the paternity of Claire and another apparent Brady baby on the way, then he would be best served and keep face to allow her to end her life, which is her committing suicide at the very least. Furthermore to prove how plot driven this is, Belle just had this IVF a couple of months ago. There is no way a child could be near far enough along to save....realistically............so more proof of a dumb plot. Which means that the Philip/Mimi child should be born very soon, also but we haven't even seen a surrogate. I will be saying things to bring attention to the reality of this plot everywhere.

Members DaysFanJean Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 I could never vote for such a demented plot. There could be really a great storyline written deserving of Martha's talents. Performing something so totally unrealistic is ludacris and a waste of talent. I'll definitely not vote if this actually happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanJean Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 There was a line left out of the spoilers "Shawn takes the news hard, but feels the right choice was made. Belle is devastated." Any thinking person would agree in such a situation in reality. Belle is suffering emotionally of course. She gets that way, remember her PPD.

Members DaysFanJean Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 I really hope not as losing a baby is traumatic without trying to make something out of it that it is not like when she had PPD which was definitely not very becoming.

Members Jinxed Soul Posted September 28, 2006 Members Share Posted September 28, 2006 I would expect Shawn to think that Phillip made the right decision from his viewpoint and from an ethical viewpoint. If the places were reserved, Shawn would've done no different that what Phillip did. But, I can't wait for Belle to explode! I think she might even suffer from depression again, as a result of this.
