Ugh! That was Roxy's storyline. I always wanted Rex to be Roxy and Charlie's kid from a drunken one night stand they didnt remember. They went and butchered that idea and I can see them giving it to this lame immitation

I've never been a Rex fan, however I do enjoy the Balsom clan as a whole and still can't understand why the writers took Rex from Roxy to begin with. And don't get me started on making Schuyler Roxy's son.

Yeah seriously, what a waste. It of course takes more than blood to make a family, but we in the real world seem to understand that better than soap writers, Kevin and Joey being the decades old exception. They really messed over the Roxy/Rex thing, and for what? What's his name was let go, and Roxy even said to Rex at one point, "I messed up with you, I'm not going to miss my chance to get it right with Schuyler." Ouch. I mean, do they not like Roxy, are they trying to marginalize her? I think they see Roxie's town kook factor and figure they can make her mama figure to any number of characters when it's convenient (think AMC's Myrtle).

Messing up Rex's parentage was totally and completely unnecessary. I do agree with those who believe Rex will end up being Reva and Ross' child. I don't think Clint needs another child. This would be the 3rd biological child he fathered and had no clue about. Geez. He should go on the Maury Povich show.

LOL! The image of KZ running backstage crying, mascara running at "You are NOT the father!"

Well, I guess the *cute* thing would be that Rex and Natalie really are bro and sis afterall.

That's the only bright spot I see in this potential storyline. Natalie has a far more believable sibling vibe with Rex than she does with Jess and especially Joey and Kevin.

And Rex and David Vickers would be cousins?

I stopped buying any Rex/Natalie relationship when Rex didn't give a crap that she was missing for weeks and weeks.

That would be as funny as Dorian almost becoming Matthew's sister-in-law and Bo and Nora becoming her father and step mother-in-law.

I actually always bought Kevin and Natalie's relationship, because it was thorny and often awkward. He would condescend to her and try to manage her problems and impulsiveness, and it was clear he cared for her but also was always getting to know her, and treated her with a bit of exasperation. It seemed like the kind of relationship two long-lost siblings would actually have, as opposed to the bullshit relationships the Hubbard kids forged with Natalia, and other stories of that ilk.

Kevin and Nat's relationship has softened a lot since he began doing brief stints on the show as opposed to contract. And that's fine, and it makes sense since they obviously bonded by working at BE together (where she should still be working), even if by long-distance. But I liked the edge to it, because she is all impulse and fire and Kevin is more analytical and calculating.

That was definitely a chem test for Echo/Rex as mom and son... if it made sense time wise, I'd say that Rex's parents were Echo and Clint. Making him Clint's son would make a lot of drama with Bo/Clint- but it would also not make ANY sense... or would it? When was Rex born? He's younger than Natalie, who was born in 86... yeah wouldn't work. But they'll probably try it!

All they would have to do would suddenly make Rex older than Natalie, and to say that it was because when Roxy was given him- he was already like 5 years old.

The time actually makes perfect sense. Natalie being born in 1986 is of no significance at this point. It's obvious she's older than 24, in fact, more like 30. Echo being Rex and Clint's fits in perfectly. If Daniella can go from being born 7 years ago to 16 then I can easily buy the other.

Can anyone say ECHO!!!!! Loving it!!

Now Cole is all worried about Starr and Hope.

This chase in an empty and desolate hospital is so unbelievable.

its amazing how they are all allowed to just run up in there. No security or anything? The only person roaming the halls is a janitor? No nurses?

Now Eli has Tea. He's rounding up all the females important to Todd

Starr is in danger, running away with a serial killer while she's with her daughter. Who does she call? Cole. He's a much better choice than the police? Idiot

Its not really a hospital shes in. Its a clinic if that makes any difference.

And she expected Hannah to give Cole the message.

Greg: Tea's alive.

Nat: What did you just say?

Greg: Tea's alive.

Nat: WHO's alive?

Greg: Tea.

Nat: Did you just say TEA?

OH. MY. GAHHHHHHD!

You mean to tell me scrappy Starr wouldn't go to town on gimpish Eli?? Starr is that girl who will muff you up gutter style.
