Lisa Seidman is breakdown/assoc. writer, and Darin/Shelley are script writers. And Freiwald/Schreiber are writing partners. Aside from that, I believe it's all okay. Maybe Toups knows more about the position new writers will have.

i am just talking about 'open bed, insert slut'

im gonna need to pull that one day at a party.

the rest is... horrid..... "I'm gonna pull your bleached blonde hair out by the roots!" ?!?!?! WHAT?! really? no.

bitchy lines like that can work - but only here or there when its needed on soaps like amc. soaps like B&B and Days can pull it off all the time if they wanted. But i just dont see that fitting in well on a soap like amc, tho i could be wrong.

Andreoli's were much better, as far as I can remember.

I wish Tracey Thomson brought Carly vs. Kate to a whole new level, although I thought it was a good scene (just good, nothing special):

KATE: What can I do for you?

CARLY: I understand you're planning a huge wedding. In the interest of your dignity, you may want to rethink that.

KATE: Excuse me?

CARLY: Keep it small and simple. That way when Sonny backs out, there will be no calls for embarrassment.

KATE: But, Carly, the only one embarrassing herself here is you.

CARLY: Look, if you want to have a big flashy wedding, by all means go ahead, but at least be smarter about it than Brenda was. Don't walk down the aisle until you actually see Sonny standing there. But you still may want to wear waterproof mascara because it's gonna hurt a whole hell of a lot when Sonny leaves you standing there alone.

That scene should have been expanded.

Sam: What's with the injured-wife routine? You betrayed your husband with another man, his worst enemy, if I've got my facts straight. Sonny's done with you, he's free. So am I. There is nothing left to say.

Carly: Ok, well, I wouldn't get all comfy and cozy with Sonny, if I were you. Has he bothered to mention Brenda yet? Because the two of you look enough alike to be sisters -- same height, same build, same dark hair -- although Brenda’s was more stylish, but I'm sure that Sonny did not notice that difference in the dark.

Sam: Well, you are some nasty little bitch.

Carly: No, actually, I'm being pretty nice, and I imagine that the resemblance to Brenda was also the hook for Jax.

Sam: Ok, now you're stretching.

Carly: You'll probably have more time with Sonny than you did Jax because Sonny is a practical man. Brenda's gone. So am I. You'll do for now, but don't think that you're in it for the long haul, because you will lose Sonny just the same way that you lost out on Jax.

Sam: Oh, yeah? Why is that?

Carly: Because you're not Brenda. No one is. Brenda, the illusive ghost she is. She's incandescent. Oh, she is unattainable and unforgettable and Sonny and Jax, they have her so high up on a pedestal, you cannot see her until she comes back down and is in your face. And let me tell you something else -- she always comes back. Always. So, you may be sharing Sonny's bed right now, but just do yourself a favor and never forget that you are a substitute, and you always will be.

Now, if i got my airdate correct, according to Toups' info this epsiodes breakdown was by Michele Val Jean and .. err directing by Scott Mckinsey (thanx Sylph)

No need for an apology or anything of the sorts!

GH's outlines are written by Conforti, Goldschmid and Wolf - they are always listed after Guza and there is no way to distinguish a particular episode's BDW. The person who appears above Korte is the SW.
