I haven't watched today's episode yet, is it worth checking out?

[ChitHappens]

Still trying to figure out why PigPen is back! What a [!@#$%^&*] waste!

[dragonflies]

I love the shout out to Frank & Doris Hursley today, that was a neat way to fit that in

[Cheap21]

how?

[dragonflies]

the beginning when Epiphany was on the phone she was talking with a woman named Doris and asked if she liked Frank's surprise

[Cheap21]

Oh cool thanks. Although one could interpret that as if Doris liked the surprise that Frank Valentino was about to present in the hour

@valentinifrank Beautiful episode, Frank... Very moving. So happy to see all the faces I knew so long ago. Congratulations!!

[Chris B]

i don' understand why they don't just bring back Rebecca. That's the only role I've ever seen Natalia shine in. I would've rather that, with amber Tamblyn back as Emily.

[R Sinclair]

Well, I tip my dreads to Sonya Eddy for selling that line, because when I read it in that breakdown RC twitpic'd, it made me groan.

[Cheap21]

I loved her as Rebecca and wouldn't mind seeing that character make a return but I think it makes sense why she wasn't. Having the character of Emily really helped strengthened today's scenes and I thought NL did a great job

[R Sinclair]

I never saw any of Rebecca. Was she any good? I just assumed she was a doppleganger placeholder to capitalize on the "same actress, different role, same love interest" stunt casting they did earlier with SJB's Claudia.

[Cheap21]

I missed early Rebecca but she was a bit unique from what I read and little bit I saw of her. Then she sort of lost her fire and became Emily in all but name. However she went to being a bitch with a personality in the weeks prior to her exit and was fantastic. I loved how she would get under Liz's skin. Their scenes were delicious

Dead!

Wow this was an amazing episode!

I was so happily surprised to see Emily, though I wish it had been AmTam.

I sensed some foreshadowing when Tracy was talking about everything Rick did to Laura and he said "that's not how it happened At all".

Ethan! To those asking- he was a distraction meaning that his kidnapping was used to distract Luke while Hels swept in and kidnapped LnL's kids.

Seeing Rick just drove home how much I miss Lesley. Can't believe they didn't bring her back. That's a glaring omission.

Brenda's voice.

Audrey! SO amazing to see her. Loved Liz mentioning everyone in the family. Also loved the Steve/Aud flashback and when she kissed her finger and touched the picture.

That final scene of Audrey looking around the hospital was beautiful. I teared up.

I believe Audrey will be at the ball.

[KMan101]

LOL. I didn't watch much of any of her as Rebecca but I liked that clip. Nice to see a different side of Natalia. I still don't find her great but I thought playing a bitch would suit her. It kind of does.

[dragonflies]

She got a pretty good exit, Chad Brannon came back to exit her off the canvas, it was kind of like when Jake left OLTL with Megan's doppelganger
