Loooved the Brooke and Steph scene, such a classic rivalry..

But this wedding is sooo awkward, with all the inmarrying and such...

I actually think Brooke is as responsable for all of this as Stephanie was for her rape.

brooke set all the motions in action due to her beuing a jelous possive whore.

Brooke looked AMAZING today! So did Felicia.

If you mean she wound Storm up and got him stalking Ash...and equating that to Steph's actions in Brooke's rape...sorry, not buying that. Brooke knew Storm. Steph didn't know crappola about Andy. Brooke had reason to believe Storm was dealing with his issues. After Ridge and Brooke separated, Steph continued to push her self-righteous agenda, thinking that Brooke's next lay would keep her out of Ridge's life. Yeah, Brooke wanted Ash away from Ridge, but at least she also cared enough about Storm to want him to get out and meet someone. Steph's actions were purely malicious and self-serving. Brooke's motives, while not pure, at least took other's feelings into account. And honestly, if Ridge hadn't told Ash about Storm shooting Steph, I'm not sure he would have boiled over the way he did. Storm saw it as another example of Forrester interference.

Brooke said the other day thats Stom's life was spinning out of ctonrol and that he had issues. Did she just realize this? After he killed himself? Or was it after he tried to kill Stephanie? Its been obvious for some time and well before Brooke had him go after Ashley to keep her away from Ridge. I do think Brook's intentions were malicious and self-serving. I honestly dont think she is reasponsable for what happened, but i also dont think Steph is for brooke's rape. They both set the actions in motion but nither is really responsable, IMHO.

Ridge had EVERY right to tell Ashley about Storm trying to murder stephanie. Katie had every right to to react the way she did when she saw what she did, esp since she knows Stporm has already tried to shoot someone to death, and not that ling ago.

I cant beleive Donna is going through with the wedding. I know I couldnt have and would need some personal time to grieve for my brother and process everything that happened. I couldnt take being happy and smiles in front of everyone after everthing that just happened but then again, people deal with pain in different ways

To me, what Brooke did with Storm and Ashley is on the same lines of what she accused Stephanie of doing to her with Andy. Storm was sick and disturbed, yet she forced him on Ashley, in order to keep her away from Ridge

i agree, but i did at least like it they had katie urging her to go and do it.

I don't understand why Brooke is suddenly "at fault" and "the cause" of Storm's suicide. She encouraged Storm to date Ashley because 1. she wanted Ash away from Ridge and 2. she totally trusted Storm. She assumed everything was fine with him again, that he was back to being the same old Stormy who looks after his crazy sisters and gets a ribbing from them once in a while. It was clear the way she talked to him about Ashley and Ridge that she was confiding in him as she had always done. She did not sic "crazy Storm" on Ashley in the hopes that he would stalk or rape her! And she certainly could not have predicted the chain of events that followed.

Unlike Stephanie who knew Andy would "take advantage" of Brooke. Taking advantage being a euphemism for sexual assault.

And in a weird way, I don't think Storm was anywhere near as sick and disturbed as Andy the Rapist.

Wooo Pam is back (although I think the water-spraying dream was a little much). And they got Kristin back. TLM gets her once every six months appearance. Everybody looks great for the wedding. I'm glad (and surprised) they threw in that bit about Caroline.

I loved that when Pam took the hose to Donna, figured it was a dream but for a second thought (hoped) maybe it was real!

Great scenes so far, B&B is smoking!

I never said that Brooke was at fault for Storm's suicide and I dont think that at all. I just dont want to hear her or her sisters get down on Stephanie for the pushing Andy towards Brooke when she did a similiar thing here with Storm and Ashley. Thats all.

Those events were not that similar. Stephanie encouraged a complete stranger she met at a bar into Brooke's life. All that mattered to her was that he had a penis. Brooke at least knew Storm wasn't a complete psycho.

I didn't have a problem with Ridge telling Ash...I only meant that it triggered a reaction from Storm.

Fabulous episode today. Lots of tension during the wedding and lots of bickering and bitchiness at the reception. Loved it when Stephen told off Felicia, Thorne and Kirsten. La Flannery was truly fantastic as she looked at the house and had that monologue--and a great use of a flashback. Poor Ashley on the other hand--she just wanted to help, but didn't she know what Katie's reaction would be? God Heather Tom SO deserves an Emmy for this.

NoOoOoOoOoOoO

I missed today!
