Wait a minute! Did this episode imply that Wyatt AND Amanda were molested by the priest or did the priest order Wyatt and Amanda to molest each other? That seems almost heavy-handed, especially now that Amanda has also recently been raped by a professor. That's just a double-whammy for her character. Jeffrey's lust for Wyatt just became that much greater, almost to the point of crazy! Where in the world is this show going with these characters?

That initial scene with Hanna and Kat went on way too long. They went from talking about her cancer to Hanna's family problems. They should have put in a different scene in between the topic switch so that there would be a better transition. 9 whole minutes

Wyatt's girl....whoa she came out of nowhere. And look at Jeffrey acting jealous as expected. Man was he thirsty this episode especially when gripping onto the clothing and sniffing it

Ha read the comments--I don't think anyone thinks it's great. I can't stop watching, but personally think it's pretty awful in ever respect. I will say that if you wanna watch for the gay storyline you're gonna be bored with a majority of the show (it hasn't even come up in more than 3-4 episodes so far.)

This is pure train wreck TV. It's so bad, once you get a lil interested in the story, you can't stop watching. Like someone else mentioned, there's lil gems thrown in that make you laugh your ass off and makes it worth watching (Bootleg Sally's by-the-balls comment and Jeffrey smelling Wyatt's shirt).

^^^I think you must be referring to some David/Jim scene. But they're friends, not servant/master, although David spends 99 percent of his time doing Jim's unpleasant tasks.

Yeah, I guess Perry's implying that Wyatt and Amanda were abused together---at least this week. It seems odd to me that Kathryn seemed so guilty about what happened to Wyatt without mentioning that that's what also triggered Amanda's damage. It's too bad that whatever Perry writes will seem so laughably preposterous---abuse and incest are serious matters.

BTW, am I the only one who thinks the actress who plays Amanda looks biracial? I fully expect one day Katherine's going to go off on Jim about how she spent years passing off one of his bastards as their child.

As bad as the plotting is---I loved the scene where Katherine explained that her father's money bought Jim everything and she sure wasn't going to let him and his whores live it up when she was gone, and she sure didn't trust her will would be executed if Jim could find a way around it.

    • And her evolution was so subtly done. There was nothing like the depraved shows later on, like Game of Thrones, where they said a woman needed to be raped in order to find empowerment. The layers of Laura were what got me hooked on Knots, somewhere in the season 3 repeats. And I agree that her becoming a therapist would have made sense - look at how much her trauma over her mother drove her decisions early on.
    • I think that the problem with Laura was that she had grown to love herself and saw her value in both herself, her career, and her marriage.  She had this inner strength and confidence that Lynn/Bernard didn't know how to harness/write for because they were more interested in generating conflict amongst emotionally immature people. Karen/Mac and Gary/Val were all immature/stubborn to a fault even though they all had grown/evolved.  So the Latham's could key into their essence/history to generate the standard soap opera tropes and stories for them. Even the season 8 conflict with Laura's pregnancy and Greg not being cool with it didn't diminish Laura's fire and strength.  You saw how she was able to move on and live her life as a single mother because she'd already done that after Richard took off.   I saw her response to Greg's kissing Paige as 'that's my husband and I can't change him.. but once I find something better, I'll toss himself'.  She wasn't emotionally tied to him nor his money.. and I think that was partly why she was such a unique and interesting character in the nighttime soap world in the 80s.
    •   They actually had great chemistry to as friends in the scene I felt. A shame it was the first onscreen interaction. Looks better than Bill/Hayley’s house. I absolutely loved that! I feel the exact same way. This is just facts. Those scenes today between them were electric.
    • If The Real Housewives of Dubai is on hiatus/pause (a.k.a. done), then we need a way for Caroline Stanbury to come back to Ladies of London.
    • I hate quick snip scenes.  Such a tired hold-over from the 1980s.  And that nonsense does not belong on BTG.  Bring back the long scenes.  
    • And a great......and a great.....
    • Eva packing, thinking about how good the Richardson's house smells.

    • In light of yesterday's news...I figured it was okay to bump this up. And probably do a rewatch.

    • I don't really read spoilers, but Perry Shen seems to come and go so even if this is an "exit" it's probably not permanent.
