LOL it's just delicious how so many people on this show are secretly plotting against everyone else. You have Emily working with her associate Nolan. Victoria running sh!t with Conrad (and Frank, if he's still alive). Now we have Ashley in cahoots with Tyler. And of course, Lydia's still a wild card. The fall out is going to be epic, particularly for Daniel. Everyone he loves and cares about is keeping secrets from him, except for his sister.

And of course, realEmily might be on to her own scheme, and who knows if Conrad's gonna grow some balls and turn against Victoria.

TWO WEEKS?! Damn.

This is a tiny quibble, but I wish they would have shown a kiss or something--the cut away seemed a bit too Melrose--then again we saw them in bed later, so maybe they just wanted to leave the question of them getting together open till then. (I already can imagine some groups complaining about the gay/bi character being a badguy, but I admit I love it. On another forum there's a pointless heated discussion about whether Tyler is gay or bi lol). Interesting in that article posted Kelley says he's kinda modeled after Ripley int he movie version (which I think doesn't really make him gay or straight just desperate for connection to a psycho degree).

As for Nolan, I could see him being bi (though I'd rate him higher than a 3 on the Kinsey scale), though I do wonder how much sex he's had either way before. But yes great episode--why are they skipping a week during sweeps?? is it some awards show?

I like Jack-you have to have one nice guy. I did have two minor things--so Daniel was drugged and passed out just the night before, yet didn't even seem hungover and it wasn't mentioned in terms of his work? And... I can't actually remember my other quibble, lol. Oh still not feeling Declan and Charlotte--and Declan should learn to at least try to control himself during his first real chance to make an impression on Victoria--though I laughed outloud about the line with his Rose wine. They were better than previous weeks but between not liking the Declan actor, hating his James Ddean line delivery and not really caring it's kinda yawn.

OMG another great episode. Nolan and Tyler? What a twist. The real Emily Thorn waking off Frank (wonder if he is really dead?) wow.

While I like Daniel, I have a feeling it's going to be a long snog for us Emily/Jack fans. sad.png

Don't know how I'm going to survive waiting for 2 weeks.

One thing I loved about this episode was that Nolan got a body guard. Hate it when shows have rich people threatened and they don't run out and get protection ASAP. I'm hoping Jack eventually forgives Nolan. I want them to be friends.

Sure, it's Sociology 101 and Nolan probably made it through at least one year of college. Not that I think he's straight.

I liked Declan a bit more tonight. I'm glad he stood up for his brother. Sure, it wasn't his best move, but I'm glad to see he cares about someone other than himself. The way he treated his Dad made me wonder.

Great episode! Awesome twists! I could see the gay twist coming, haha, but not Nolan's response! I get the ambiguous, bi vibe from him. Tyler a hustler of older gay men? Ha, I know a few of those in my neighborhood, so I'm used to the idea, heehee. Awesome twist. That and the real Emily Thorne. Such wonderful juicy soap twist goodness on this show!

    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...

    • Haven't seen today's ep yet but so will be interested to see the clothes. So far I think they have been very character specific (even if I don't like some of them eg Kat's cutsie style) Anita is very showy/glittery, Nicole classic elegance, Dani sexy/bold colors etc. Unlike Y&R which seems much more generic. Also BTG pays attention to the men's wardrobe and has developed a style for the boyz-which is harder to do with male fashion. The absence of any of Derek/Ashley at any of these big events again demonstrates how they are in a different universe to the rest of the show. Not that a nurse and a fireman would be there but still they seem destined at this point to stay in their own lane and have little interaction with the core of the show.
