Thats true but in that case it wasn't rape because she the real person did consent. I'm not sure if what happened would be considered a crime because of that.

Didn't Emily have sex with Nikolas when he had amnesia. I remember folks making an issue out of that also.

I'm so disappointed Johnny caved e8099.gif What a mess!

Ronnie was extremely creepy today. Now he's following Lulu, oh no I hope he doesn't beat her too sad.png I usually love Olivia but she needs to GTFO for a while. I'm finding her very annoying these days, I just do not like her & Steve at all.

That's not really a 'fact' at all. There have been several characters who have pointed out Kate's oddness (Jason, Carly, Olivia, Liz, etc.) there have been several characters who have noticed her odd behavior -- Johnny has as well but there is nothing that shows that he understands her DID illness or what is happening to her. Olivia and Carly have also mentioned Kate's alter ego Connie but they too don't understand the distinction between Kate's former name and her alter/multiple personality. The only one who really knows and understands that she is mentally ill and has DID is Ewan. Her doctor who has advised her to commit herself until she was full control over her renegade alter. Assuming anyone else knows anything of the above at this point in the story is an assumption because we are presuming that the other characters know and understand what is happening with Kate in her mind, because we the audience do. That's not the case, not at all. No one really knows that Kate is ill except Kate/Connie and Ewan.

That being said I think it's interesting that you see this as rape, would you say Nash raped Jessica because he constantly had sex with Tess? Would you consider Antonio a rapist because he didn't get Tess' consent to sleep with her? I think that's a very grey area -- which is why I posted what I originally posted. I definitely think by contrast Teen Jessica and Amnesic Marty were much more easy to judge then this Connie/Kate mess is because at least one of them knows what is happening and is giving consent, which is a lot like the Tess/Jess story with Antonio and Nash.

Carly and Olivia have made similar comments in noticing how Kate acts differently at times and asking if that's Connie and if she is showing her true self -- neither of them know that she has DID. They just assume she is a slut or a hypocrite who gives mixed signals, they don't assume she has DID.

Are you really comparing what Johnny knows to Carly and Olivia? Carly and Olivia are not in the know.They've noticed she's acted strange and thats the extent of it. Johnny has interacted with Connie who acts like Kate is a seperate person and Johnny addresses her as such. She hides it with other people but she's herself and has been open with Johnny. He's even talked to Anthony acknowledging she's crazy.

Clearly this woman who freaks out and acts terrified as a man is trying to have sex with her which she has no recollection of is completely sane

Okay, that's what I wanted to know. I didn't remember a time where Johnny actually interacted with both Kate and Connie at once. I just thought he thought she was faking it, like Olivia did when she confronted Kate for coming on to Ewan.

    • @TaoboiI ran into Dani’s favorite party planner again tonight

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
