Saaaame DNA...Love that second to last shot of the two Todds looking face to face before the closeups...Can someone screencap it?

Now I wonder where RC will take the story, though we all know the outcome...At least that was a nice Monday twist.

The awkward silence and pan across the room as RH Todd asks the cast (and the writers) why they didn't realize the rapemance is something he might not have done is hilarious.

All I could do was shake my head and smile at that. The show totally had its cake and is now eating it too.

I'm guessing someone in that wacky lab injected TSJTodd with some syfy dna mimicking serum.wacko.png

I see now why RC said he would have loved to make the story last longer had TSJ stayed. As much as I am sad that TSJ is leaving...I dont think I could stomach the crap RC would have written after this mess.

Soapsuds I am just curious why you dislike RH so much? Is it because of his stint on ATWT which was dreadful?

I like both actors but I have to confess, RH as TOdd possesses something TSJ doesn't and maybe its the essence of the character. I never watched much when RH was on years back, but i have to admit he had a presence and just seems to fit.

I think the writers feel somewhat bound to write the story around the need to explain Danny's DNA test. There has to be an explanation as to why it matched TSJ Todd's. Personally, I would have accepted that Tea had a short relationship in between Todd and Ross Rayburn, and the Fake Todd was that guy. It would have let him keep Danny as his daughter.

Obviously, the writers have no problem ignoring/rewriting history, but I think Danielle's paternity test was so recent that they felt it couldn't be ignored.

Never in a million would I have guessed that Pressediny would pass up the chance of having Matthew's baby. Nice that they threw that crumb to Phylicia, it's about damn time. I guess I never really thought about it, but Destiny's been living with Shaun all this time? Why did I think he still lived at home...

Did anyone else huh.png @Nora's line about Matthew lying in that hospital bed still growing while his brain wasn't playing catch up? I immediately pictured the slow pan from the meeping heart monitor over to the hospital bed revealing some dude looking like Tyler Baker circa 1997 all hooked up to tubes and crap. Not sayin, just sayin.

Someone on another board mentioned when Tea did the DNA test on Dani, she used RH Todd's DNA. She had a hair in a locket and she used that.

And did you notice how when TSJ dropped his hair on the floor they cut to the shot of Phlyicia vacuuming? Maybe he was pilfering vacuum bags. :P

I thought TSJ looked very alive in today's episode...He's actually been great since the start of this story...I've accepted he's leaving now and will just enjoy these last I assume two months of him on the show, though I have no idea what there will be to do with him once everything comes out.

I also like that Jack believes him no matter what. It's pretty disappointing how quickly everyone who's apparently loved and believed him for 8 years completely changed their minds in a heartbeat.

He's shunned Blair, Starr, Viki, and Jessica in recent years, unless they could help him.

Jack has idolized TSJ Todd - the worse Todd is the more Jack loved him. I doubt that will ever change.

You could tell TSJ is resigned to the fact that they made RH the real Todd. He said F it. His acting is zany, almost mocking...

The writing for RH is way to OOC. They're trying to make him sympathetic in contrast to TSJ and they're diluting his character in the process. His reactions has been unbelievably tame. I'm not buying "domesticated" Todd.

  • Member

This is how RH's Todd is when he isn't behaving like an arrested toddler. He was capable of calm and intellect. And frankly, TSJ's performance is no different from how it's been for years.

Yeah I get that TSJTodd and RHTodd are supposed to be different, but RHTodd wasn't a p ussy...The fact that he hasn't attacked TSJTodd at all since revealing himself and finding out about things, especially the rapemance is a bit off...

And i think it's funny that now RC is using RHTodd to basically bash the storyline HE WROTE AND PRAISED.
