Thoughts:
Well, that double date went down doubly fast. Unfortunate. But Joey really seemed to do everything in his power to end it before it even began, much to the detriment of Vanessa.
Bill? His will? With Dani? Oh, something is up. Could he possibly have some suspicions about Hayley? This is conveying the message, "You need to be aware before it's too late!"
Damn. Hayley just wants to jump right to a Snapped episode-level of murder at this point. Joey and Lynette have her shaking in her damn tacky boots.
Vanessa deserves praise for confronting Joey's behaviour at the dinner. It was unacceptable (despite also being deliciously juicy). Kial and the dealer ran out of there so damn fast there was smoke.
I hate how rattled Nicole is by Joey, and it is apparent that Carlton senses something. Such a reaction cannot be good at all.
I love that Dani's foot continues to stay firmly pressed on Hayley's neck. She will forever hold it there until her own dying day.
A positive reception from his job interview? With full partnership? Oh, this could be wonderful for Tomas! Such an upgrade. And nope, Katherine did not listen to a single thing you just said, Tomas. At all.
Opp... Carlton, if I were in your position, I would swiftly retreat and leave Nicole's house, as I strongly suspect that you are currently not in her favour. At all.
Leaving the law firm to Naomi, on paper, is a solid idea; however, if I remember properly, she made it known she was not interested in working with the firm at all.
It is sweet that Bill wants Dani to have what she wants; it indicates that he still has deep feelings for her. If only he could have seen that prior to divorcing.
Tomas is a level-headed individual. And he is being smart about things right now, especially where taking money from Katherine is concerned.
Uh-oh. Joey knows about the finger-sucking situation in Orpehy Gene's. Damn. He really does have ears and eyes everywhere in Fairmont Crest.
DAYUM! Nicole went right from Carlton to Kial. She knew who she wanted in that moment and went for it. That's important.
Ooo wee, Lynette's foot is also firmly on Hayley's neck, and she is not playing about! I hope she does blow up Hayley's con for everything.
Notes:
Ah yes, it is a Bibel and Brown day. Amazingly consistent and had excellent flow. A quick-moving episode today.
Lauren Buglioli (Vanessa) continues to shine as Vanessa; she has such complexity in the role and shows many dynamic sides of her character. A genuine find.
Things are moving quite well, story-wise, right now. Nothing feels dragged down or lacking. We're progressing smoothly from April to May Sweeps, which is incredibly thrilling! I am eagerly anticipating the next episode. You could say I'm being edged by Beyond the Gates.
The bedroom set for Greg Vaughan's Kial is lovely. Hopefully we see more in the coming weeks! I love the rollout of the budget refill.
Timon Kyle Durrett (Bill) and Karla Mosley (Dani) continue to spark with undeniable electric chemistry. I cannot wait for the romance to play out in front of us.
Dominique Madison (Lynette) is delicious, and part of me wishes she would have been cast as Hayley over Marquita Goings.
