Santa Barbara Discussion Thread

We know nothing about Marcy but A openly demonstrates wishing to work with her again. I think he has contact with her. As for Kelly, I like Carrington as much as Robin, and she is back to soapdom. Nothing is impossible

At the point when Lionel says nothing they've done was a mistake, everyone was still clothed. 

I will concede they were parked close enough to the marina. But it is also possible that she spent the night in a hotel and called Ted in the morning. Either way, after the yacht trip, Sophia was done flirting with the Lionel danger. 

And I really loved the second trip to the casino, when CC and Lionel are there and she shows up with the third guy and a sly, "Suck it" grin on her face.

I loved the high stakes card game. But my favorite part was Augusta and Mason under the table to find out what the hands were.

Sophia was remarkably kind to Warren, even after he threatened to shoot her while trying to rob the casino.  Maybe she had a thing for guys in trouble?

[Marissa Gallant]

Eh, she's just a very kind human who didn't want to hurt Lionel's son. 

[amybrickwallace]

She wouldn't be the first lady in soaps to feel that way.

Her thing is men who ARE trouble, not just IN trouble. And she is very compassionate. She knew Warren was in trouble and tried to convince him to get help.

Was it ever revealed that CC knew the casino games were rigged or I am just assuming he knew what Dylan was doing?

And was Haley protesting the opening of the casino or an off shore oil rig?

Hayley was following Lily Light's orders to protest the opening of the casino.

[Tyro]

Rigged? I hear about this at first time. Something like that could happened in any casino but as far as I remember Dylan was interested in good reputation. Brick and Amy would hardly work in a cheating place.

No, as @amybrickwallace said, this brilliant idea came with Lily Light) But she didn't exist when the casino was opened

Dylan actually started out as a hardworking kind of underdog until he fell for Kelly. He really was written into a corner after that, and his demise was inevitable. Page Moseley gave it his all, however, and made Dylan a more sympathetic figure than what was on paper.

Your response reminded me of this famous scene from Casablanca

Dylan rigged the roulette wheel while Warren was betting, it was clear that he had a button to push to rig the outcome

This from the French site (which I know you often doubt), but it also seen in the episode on YT

Dylan, who wants to keep control of the casino money, do not hesitate to rig the roulette wheel, and Warren Lockridge is one of the players who is his the more often victim of it.

Wow, I missed Dylan cheating at the casino

 I don't think that CC knew about... well, now I'm not sure 

I didn't say that santa-barbara-online makes mistakes in every article  I said that mistakes come across in articles about Sophia and people associated with her. Maybe Sophia isn't Lilian's favorite character, and she just doesn't remember and doesn't wish to rewatch Sophia's storyline. Maybe Dylan is her favorite character

Anyway, they had to change their clothes from last night. They spent the night together, got dressed, maybe had a breakfast. Monterey is further from Santa Barbara than Carmel, it means that at first they decided to continue the trip but then start to argue again (maybe Lionel was too pushing) and Sophia put an end to it. I'm impressed how she screamed at him "Damn you!" No social distance at all.

She was definitely there all night. The detective was watching over them, and he reported to CC that Sophia left the yacht only in Monterey  

Did you see Sophia and Lionel spend a night together in 1990? The story when Gina made photo report about this and then blackmailed them?

In the morning they were going to run away from each other secretly and accidentally bumped  downstairs.  So typical Sophia and Lionel.

[Marissa Gallant]

CC told Dylan that if he ever found out Dylan was rigging the tables, he would see to it that Dylan never worked again. So, my guess is that CC suspected, but wasn't completely sure. Dylan was dead shortly after that.

[amybrickwallace]

I believe that's how it turned out.
