I just can't get behind this whole Marissa thing at all. I hate stories like this...it's like the ultimate re-write. Krystal's been on the show for over five years and there was never, ever, any inclination whatsoever that Babe might have had a twin out there somewhere. I just feel that if Krystal knew that she had another daughter out there somewhere, we would have seen something over the last five years. Alas, I guess it's one of those things that we're supposed to suspend belief for.

Well, I can believe her silence. She did sell a baby on the black market. Not everybody casually mentions illegal things they've done in the past -- especially if you're trying to forget they ever happened. Not to mention, she did prison time for kidnapping yet another baby, so she's had every reason, I believe, to sweep this skeleton as far back in to her closet as possible... And considering who KWAK is, I think it's a walk-in closest akin to the size of Mariah Carey's.

Calm down... the secret just came out of Krystal's mouth in this episode. Up until this point, only she and Adam knew about it. Of course she told Tad, so I totally doubt it won't be brought up. The only person who is not allowed to be reminded of the heinous crime he committed is Tad himself.

You act as if Adam and David get away without being reminded every single day of how horrible they are and each and every last thing they did to everyone in town. Sheesh! Give the secret a chance to get out before we start demanding Adam be called on his hypocrisy, because you know it will happen!

Oh I'm quite calm.

But I often either don't have the time or the stomach to watch this show live, so knowing the spoilers and reading these tangential threads doesn't give me a strong sense of linear on-screen secret revelation time. Hope they do bring it up because I hate when writers don't hit all the beats, especially when it's such recent history.
