Burning Questions for the Week:

How many minutes before Nick leaves Sharon's bed and returns to Phyllis?

Will Cane's mighty swimmers pierce immaculate Lily's secret garden?

We know Daniel can draw, but can he kill a man with his thighs?

With Colleen missing in action, does drag Adam have what it takes to be the new fresh face of Jabot?

Nope.

They haven't dealt with their core issues. Nick has never dealt with his grieving. Now, more recently, he's never dealt with his conflicted emotions. Thus, Phyllis is the only "shrink with benefits" that he is seeing.

And klepto-girl's psychotherapy is the stuff of legend. She WALKED OUT.

Thus, with these two profoundly damaged individuals who have resolved NONE NONE NONE of the issues that drove them apart, anyone hoping for a happy ending is simply not seeing the writing on the screen.

This is a temporary reunion, and it will show them that they are not able to be together. What will happen next?

Sharon will return to Jack, and have Billy's baby. Alas, before much time transpires, Mary Jane will steal it (fake its' death??) and Adam will use it to replace Ashley's baby.

Nick will again want his family with Phyllis back, and she will appropriately tell him to stick it where the sun don't shine.

Agreed. But I feel it in my bones -- no spoilers, I swear -- that he's gonna pull it off. Somebody else mentioned about a D&C...and I wonder how they're going to deal with that detail.

My feeling is that Adam is going to drug Ashley. But how can he isolate her from Victor?? She can't go to Abbott mansion, or Adam won't have access to her.

ETA: Maybe like Adam Carrington there will be toxic paint??

I'm pretty sure not having a D&C can kill you. And since it's just spec I pray they don't have a baby switch. I am baby switched out. It's lost all of its emotional punch for me. Though I trust Y&R would do it better than AMC, OLTL, and ATWT have done but I am just so sick of this plot.

I understand. I, on the other hand, am in the mood for a good one. But, who knows what these folks have in store for us. I really do like that they have us asking questions again, wondering where it will go.

    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
    • That would have made sense. Did all these characters get dropped when DePriest left or had they already been dropped?
    • The other issue with Missy: in June 2020, she "liked" some social media posts by Candace Owens -- things Candace said that were against Black Lives Matter.  That is described here https://tvline.com/news/melissa-reeves-racism-days-of-our-lives-instagram-controversy-2894568/ I don't know if that was ever resolved.
    • She appeared onscreen not long after Rose Livingston and Sara Montaigne, and we found out that Sara was Rose's estranged daughter. I wonder whether Peggy might have been part of that family group -- or else they were just juggling a few different potential mysteries so that they could develop whatever seemed to be getting the best response from the audience. They didn't do anything much with Rose and Sara really either. Maybe Rose would have become more prominent if Rachel and Mac had split up over Mitch, or if Sara had really flourished. In some ways I can picture Cheryl being affected by MJ's prostitution similarly to how Josie was distressed by finding out about Sharlene. But I can also see that Josie as a Frame being involved with Matthew would have different stakes for Rachel and Sharlene than Cheryl being involved with Scott. I do think the solution for Cheryl would have had to be a badder boy than Scott -- either a real bad boy who would do her wrong, or the kind of bad boy (not Chad!!!) who is essentially misunderstood and other people just don't understand. Cheryl would also have been better off with some friends her own age. Matthew and Josie benefited a bit from having other teenagers to interact with.
