I'm loving the Kendall/Bianca/Zach scenes. I'm still wondering if Kendall and Bianca still think that Simone committed suicide, or if they think she was murdered like Zach. It seems like Kendall is thinking she committed suicide, which is why she's sorta 'unbelieving'. Anyway the mystery with the ribbon and Zach's images of the woman are sooo interesting. I'm thinking that's either his mother or Ethan's mother.

Anyway Erin needs to say something - she's annoying me...lol THERE she finally did it. She actually did a good job - good tears Connie. You still annoy me though.

I really want this group of people (Amanda, Di, Aiden, Julia, Jamie) to get some great soapy stories coming up. I really am trying to believe that this stuff just isn't filler. Oh and Del wears the same shirt at ConFusion everyday. I guess that's a 'work shirt'?

WHOA - Dani and Josh scenes! Dani actually has lots of dialogue today! lol - I love it. I'm just in awe right now watching Dani and listening to her talk about Simone and how the Fusion girls are her sisters. This is great.

Great ending to a great episode. I was wanting a slow, sad song - and this one was perfect as everyone gathered together in separate places to pay tribute to Simone and cry over her. I loved it! I can't wait for tomorrow to see the Tad/Simone stuff - that'll be sad too.

The scene at ConFusion with the Wildwind bunch gave me a headache. ugh

I miss Simone. What Kendall said about her was SO TRUE! She was a light.

It pissed me off, the Simone tributes, quite frankly.

It made me sooo angry that, duh! Of course NOW the writers have all of these different aspects to give the Simone character and give her sooo much importance and meaning, making her the center and light of the Fusion team...

But where the hell were all of these important character moments BEFORE Terri Ivens said "I'm out!"?

It just makes me angry that we see Dani and Kendall tear themselves apart over Simone's death -- yet Simone wasn't given a moment of story the minute Krystal came to town and knocked her out of Tad's life. She just languished on the backburner for years, propping Greenlee and Kendall. Had a hint of story with Ethan, but that was only to facilitate James "Blinkin'" Scott's exit -- then poof! Back to the backburner.

The way everyone has been torn up over Simone's death the last two episodes, you would think that she was this major driving force on AMC -- when she wasn't... when she SHOULD HAVE BEEN! The writers even remembered her brother Anthony.

SOOOO MUCH DAMN STORY COULD'VE BEEN WRITTEN FOR SIMONE!

It truly is a loss, but I don't blame Terri one bit. If Megan wasn't going to write for her character, then she needed to find a job where she WOULD be written for.

I haven't watched AMC in a few years, since my favorite writer Richard Culliton was fired, but I liked Simone when I was watching.

I'm curious, did they also mention her father, Zeke? Was he at the funeral? Has he been on at all in recent years? I thought her tortured relationship with her father was interesting.

They've really all but ignored it, jf. There's been one or two moments about her brother (some Fusion-related dream sequence, I recall) but I can't remember when last she spoke of any seriousness about her father. Back since before McT cam along, I'd guess.

And it's true, it's a terrible, terrible waste of incredible potential. Terri and Simone deserved better than they got. Good luck to Terri!

I loved the end where all the Fusion girls ended up at the office and cried for Simone. I also liked that Zack stayed outside the room where Simone was until the results are there. It just seemed like a sweet thing he was doing for the woman his son loved.

Did the Fusion crew accept Babe as part of the grieving?

Awww @ Zach.

My VCR didn't record yesterday's show but I did download the Zach scenes. Loved Binks and Kendall watching over Miranda and Spike...that was a sweet scene. And Zach staying at the hospital

I just loved the Dani scenes - it had been over a year since we've had great scenes like that with her.

Then the end - Zach staying at the hospital...and the Fusion girls all crying and coming together for a group hug.

Then the toast at ConFusion with the younger crowd. Soooo sad.

Tomorrow is Tad's big day.

I'm with you. Too little, too late. TPTB never did anything with Simone. But NuGreenly is there!

I love that we got a Spike & Mimo scene

Awww Zach staying outside the morgue, that broke my heart

I really hope that TI will get hired on at a California soap. I wish I could watch the Tad scenes, but I can't right now. The whole suicide thing doesn't ring with me because she gave no indications that she was thinking about it. You never saw her depressed. You never saw her alone even crying. I don't know why people like Kendall, who is smart most of the time would accept this

Well she doesn't - later in the episode we all see that none of the Fusion girls believe she committed suicide. They find it hard to believe that maybe someone would want to murder her - but they are set in the fact that Simone did not commit suicide.

It plays out in the episode - you'll see.

Kendall already said she doesn't believe it's suicide.

I liked this eppy overall.

Folks have already mentioned the standout stuff (incl. Spikey and MiMo! and MamasKinks!)

I've like the idea of the WildWind Bunch and all that but the scenes at ConFusion were awful, imo. The dialogue was lost to the music and the cams couldn't keep up with the "realistic" style of GangBang convo they were trying to create. Too busy to have any significance.

What I really found subtle (and we all know how unusual that is these days on AMC) is Erin coming in to tell the Wild Bunch that Simone was dead but got caught up in an undertow and let the good times of the gang make her unsure and hesitant about telling. The cam work moving slowly in on Connie's face as the group just kept yammering and she couldn't find a way to start telling...nice job.

I do think the let Erin go silent waaaaaay too long though. Didn't JonJon say she had a pitcher of Margarita or White Rabbit thingies? Get on with it woman! Your business partner is dead upstairs.

Is anyone starting to get the impression that JonJon doesn't fit in anywhere? He seems to be a hanger-on with the WildWind Bunch and unable really to get a word in.
