I'm going to go ahead and start this thread. Enjoy the show everyone.

I loved it! I won't say anything now since some are still watching today's episode, but .... I love LUMI!!

Jen

I'm going to watch it now. GO WILLOW!!!!

wow, willow made me feel sorry for her when she was yelling at shawn, everything she said to him was so true and she had every right to be mad.

man what a week for Days, I read ahead for friday's show, man DOOL should be named soap of the week...amazing week of episodes.

I really like the idea of a pairing between Nick and Abby...(are they related? hopefully not their cute together)

Loved the episode. A nice mix of stories, with a very ominous theme running throughout, but really enjoyed the cute Bo/Hope scenes. I have so missed those over the last year. KA and PR are just so natural together that even their short little scenes leave me with a big smile. They can add so much fun and romance with just a look and a smile. This has been a great week for romance with John/Marlena, Steve/Kayla, Bo/Hope and we even got some Sami/Lucas flirting today. Fanbases should all be very happy!

I liked Abby and Nick scenes a lot, although I didn't like Roman's nastiness with Nick. The method he was trying to explain to Abby to get her to remember details of the van is often successful and although his explanation was too technical, Roman should have given Abby a chance to try. Of course, I'm prejudiced because I don't like Roman! Loved, loved, loved the scene at the end with EJ tearing up the note, paying the bill and leaving the table--such a simple scene but the ominous music and the actor himself conveyed such a sense of menace. Wonderful acting on his part. On to Willow--what a psycho! I can't believe she showed up at Bo and Hope's house like that! While some have speculated that she may be working for one of the villains in this story, she seems awfully unbalanced to be a reliable employee. This is an apartment building, she could hurt a lot of innocent people with this fire she started. EJ and Victor should both be too smart to hire this wacko, but I guess we'll see. I just want her gone!

Can't wait for tomorrow. What a week!

What's happening to me? Willow is winning me over! It started with her "I've never had a relationship" chin-wobble the other day. Then today with "I've earned the right to be angry and you've earned the right to stand there and take it," I was like "Yes, you go!"

Even her rant to Hope and Bo, on the surface over the top, made a lot of sense from her perspective. All she really wanted was to make sure they're not pressuring Shawn to go back to Belle, for them to tell him that he should be with the person that makes him happy.

Yes, she's totally dysfunctional but then she has absolutely no idea how normal people respond in situations like this.

I officially feel for her. Hell has frozen over.

LOVED EJ today, as usual. "Sit down!" Heh, Shaw is really getting lessons in manhood from EJ and Victor lately.

Otherwise, I was a little meh on the rest of today's ep. Very watchable but not nearly as good as the previous few days.

Fogot to add I'm really liking the Nick/Abby friendship

I have to clarify my Willow remarks. While I agreed with some of what she said to Shawn and also to Hope, it was more the WAY she said it and her actions that make me label her a psycho. I feel bad for her in a way because I think she has had a horrible life and Shawn was probably the first guy who was ever really nice to her. But, she always knew, from their first conversation, that Shawn had a lot of complications in his life, including a baby girl. He never made her long-term promises, and she should have protected herself from expectations. The only reason Shawn has stayed with Willow this long is because of the way she was always controlling him, the same thing she accused Hope of doing. I do agree that Shawn needs to grow up and start being his own man--as was wonderfully illustrated by EJ during the scene at Chez Rouge. He has been manipulated by a lot of women--Jan, Hope, Kate, Mimi, Belle, Willow. Although I'm sure Shawn/Belle will be the end game, he should spend some time discovering who Shawn Brady really is. And learning to be a good father to Clare.

So although I partially understand Willow, I still hate her. And starting that fire was definitely overkill for the situation.

Loved EJ showing Shawn his weakness LOL. Shawn has a lot to learn. It was flawless in my opinion. Shawn is getting there though. He is learning.

Willow is going overboard. Too bad she goes totally wackoo with the fire. Before that it was believable and acceptable. I don't have a clue what she is all about now.

I have to say, to me EJ owned the show. He was in tip-top form.

Love that Lucas is going to save his lady-love....at least the best he will be able to.

Bo and Hope are so Bo and Hope. Thankfully, her last secret is out in the open.

What's happening to me? Willow is winning me over!

Gonna catch the show on Soapnet later tonight.

Welcome to the Willow Tree, GBB!

I don't feel bad for Willow. She should have known Shawn was not going to be with her long-term. And going to Bo and Hope was totally the wrong thing to do. They don't like her, don't support her relationship with Shawn, who is a grown man and needs to live his own life. What does she expect them to do? Willow, you're history. Accept it and move on beeyotch! Also, is she and Mimi sharing lip gloss now?

Loved the Abby/Nick scenes, they make a great cousin pair. It's great to see more of Ashley. Now let's hope the writers keep giving her good stuff instead of being Chelsea's foil.

And going to Bo and Hope was totally the wrong thing to do. They don't like her, don't support her relationship with Shawn, who is a grown man and needs to live his own life. What does she expect them to do?

She probably knows about all the times Hope meddled in Shawn and Belle's lives to make them see their "feelings" for each other. Hope Brady is the biggest SHELLE pimp out there.

everyone's falling for Willow

I know, Drew! I'm loving it.

Come, everyone. Come join us all under the Willow Tree.

Not me! She's a worthless, pathetic waste of airtime. Set that fire and get your a$$ thrown in prison!!!!
