Members SFK Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 I don't know much about the various characters' backstories, but I find Nicole annoying as [!@#$%^&*]. When she ran to get help for Eric, I was hoping that she was going to trip down a flight of stairs. I feel sorry for Gabi. She is literally surrounded by men who "don't like her like that."

Members Vanguardian Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 Eric will possibly remember everything which will defeat part of Kristen's purpose. I expect Kristen to become even more desperate now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 Anyone else find the doctor that Kristen is working with, hot? I don't understand what the big deal is if Eric eventually remembers having sex with Kristen? She videotaped them so if she doesn't use it then what was the point of the revenge? People need to find out if she wants to use that to destroy him and thus Marlena in the process. Eric remember does that. I REALLY need Kristen to be pregnant I don't like Gabi living with Will and Sonny. Might sound good on paper but I cant see this turning out well.

Members difficultdiva Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 Watching Eric having tremors, as an aftereffect of the drugs that caused him to have "passion", during his rape would dampened any sort of hotness factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 25, 2013 Members Share Posted June 25, 2013 True enough, but most likely some would just focus on the earlier scenes. Or on his writhing around naked. I do hope the writing will treat it as an assault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members juppiter Posted June 26, 2013 Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 I don't want or expect DAYS to play up the rape aspect. A rape storyline is too dark and really the last place this show needs to go right now. They need to play up Kristen getting revenge on Marlena because Marlena has it coming.

Members juppiter Posted June 26, 2013 Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 He is just too generic to me. Maybe it's the writing or my fond memories of Jensen Ackles but he hasn't imbued the character with anything. A good actor will transform bad writing -- look at Scott Bryce as Craig on ATWT a couple years ago. Greg Vaughan is playing a bland character and adding nothing to it.

Members JackPeyton Posted June 26, 2013 Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 I'd hate to see them just ignore the fact that Eric was raped and what that means to his vows of being a priest. I just think there is a great story in there to tell. It doesn't need to be dark and depressing the entire time at all. It can be focused on his dealing with hat happened and moving on from it, but to just ignore it would be terrible. I do think they will gloss over it at least for awhile because "I raped your son the priest" isn't exactly the same as "your son had sex with me". I do think it'll end up being very ejami let's make a deal and never call it rape though. But I think they did such a good job with nick, I don't know.

Administrator Toups Posted June 26, 2013 Administrator Share Posted June 26, 2013 Now that we know Kristen filmed the thing, maybe she didn't have sex with Eric- she just made it look like they were. I think the writers have an out here if they want to say she didn't rape him. Maybe she'll edit out the parts where her face is showing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted June 26, 2013 Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 They could always say they didnt actually have sex, but i think it was rather clear they did. Twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ira Posted June 26, 2013 Author Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 They could retcon the second time, but the "first time" I thought it was shown that they were interrupted by that knock at the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members difficultdiva Posted June 26, 2013 Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 Marlana may of "had it coming", but Kirsten targeted, drugged and raped Eric, who had nothing to do in what happened between those two, decades ago. This should blow up in Kirsten's face and yes, rape is a bummer and a dark storyline, but when soaps don't take this topic seriously, it lessens the impact.

Members JackPeyton Posted June 26, 2013 Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 I agree. I dont think we would be seeing comments like this is Kristen was maybe Tony and Eric was Carrie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted June 26, 2013 Members Share Posted June 26, 2013 Can I just clarify that my comment probably could have been taken wrong ... I don't know if anyone did get offended but I just found the chemistry between them pretty hot. Rape aside. I'm actually not quite sure how I feel on the whole storyline it self. It's actually pretty disturbing. I don't think soaps and men being raped should be given a free pass. I think soaps just use rape anyway without any serious look at it. At least anymore. It's awful.
