Be prepared for an excellent episode.

Rae and Father Lonigan are back, with a nice discussion about homosexuality. The scenes between them, Jessica, and Simone are wonderful.

Tabitha and Endora are a hoot as always. The Pilgrims are out for blood!

Julian and Rebecca, and later Rebecca and JT are wonderful.

TC Is back!

Sam has to spell it out to a desperate Ivy that he will never take her back.

And Grace gets a mysterious phone call....will she return to Harmony after all?

*gasp*

You mean to tell me that NONE! of the main 3 storylines are featured today? Shocking, indeed

Good, it's time for other characters to have scenes not dependent on the Main 3.

I wish I would have read your post earlier, Rion. this was a PHENOMENAL episode without pilgrims ready to burn Tabs. I wish I could have recorded it but, by the time I realized it would be such an amazing episode, alas, it was already 15 minutes into the show, and I couldn't have only 45 minutes of the show recorded; that wouldn't do. (I only collect complete episodes). Sigh...great show, indeed!

And O-M-G. That Rae revelation was a SHOCKER you did NOT see coming from ANYWHERE. I never would have guessed that she, too, was Catholic and attended Simone's church. Even so, Rae ticked me off when she acted all high and mighty toward the inner-city kids. She judged them as the hoodlums who beat up Fr. Lonigan JUST based on their appearance. You would think a lesbian would know better than to make such snap judgments!

As for the Sivy action, I'm not convinced by Sam's speech that he wouldn't take Ivy back if she was the last woman on earth. Let's face it, Sam's a strong, hot, man who loves sex. He would be with Ivy if she were the last woman on the earth. A man like Sam NEEDS to plow something. Besides, a Dudley Do-Right like Sam WOULD sleep with Ivy just to repopulate the earth so the species could survive. So Ivy? You have your work cut out for you: kill EVERY woman on earth.

Who do you think called Grace? It seemed to be someone she knew.

I didn't see it, so I have no idea what the context of the convo was, but Charity? Fr. Lonigan?

Sorry, King, "Passion" ain't so repetitive anymore. This person on the phone with Grace clearly THREATENED Grace. This person is NOT a friend or loved one. Sadly, I think they're going to keep her away from Harmony. (Hence Dana Spark's 'I'll believe it when I see it' remark about Grace's homecoming). It's intriguing though, wondering who has Grace on a leash.

The highlight for me was Becks. I loved her comment about why men can't accept her for the nymphomaniac that she is.

I just love her with JT.

Tabitha being burnt at the stake?! WOW Endora, that's your mommy.

I hope IVY got the hint. I missed the last 5 minutes or so.

Who could be calling Grace? I haven't the foggiest.

Maybe JT's threatening Grace with something. He is blackmailing someone.

Endora as a pilgrim was simply adorable.

Rebecca/JT was a riot and so was Rebecca/Julian.

Tabitha/Endora were great. The burning at the stake-loved it. Endora on Thanksgiving is always good.

The Grace phone call was intriguing. I have no idea but she clearly was threatened and I hope JER does something good with it. That does seem to fit with Dana's comments about "believing it when she sees it."

Sami/Ivy was good too along with Evian.

The rest was meh. Jessica, Rae, and Simone was a little too much. I liked the effort and seeing Fr. Lonigan but they overdid it a bit with the homesexual topic. I liked it but I thought they kept going too long with it.

Good to see the main stories given a rest in favor of other characters.

Good to see the holidays here because Passions always does it's best around this time. Too bad they don't do it year around anymore.
