Wow, someone is going to send Jack a TEXT. I'm shaking. I have never been so on the edge of my seat. Great cliffhanger for March madness.

Ellen Winters. The b*tch is back.

[Khan]

Please, dear God, don't let it be Patty.

[YRfan23]

Can they really surprise us for once and let let it be either Leanna or Mari Jo??

[Forever8]

Either it's one of them or maybe Mai or probably something out of the blue like Allie's mother.

I had to read a profile of Mari Jo last night because I couldn't remember her. Couldn't she still be Allie's mother, though? Didn't she have a connection with Keemo briefly? I'd be for this since she once shot Victor! Do it again, Mari Jo. Do it again.

If Barbara Crampton turned up again I'd have to tune in. She is everywhere back in the horror genre these days and she is still incredible.

[Sapounopera]

Mari Jo would turn out to be Allie's mother on GH or Days. Josh Griffith will probably use a random 3-episode character for the part. Are there any more 2013 ladies to bring back?

[Faulkner]

Diana Barton (Mari Jo) hasn’t acted (on screen) in almost 20 years, if her IMDB is to be believed.

I always thought she was so striking in that film-noir femme fatale way.

[Melroser]

I'd tune in more. Maybe Leann is working on a new expose of Genoa City residents. She could have been the one digging around Jack's past and discovered Allie. It'd be perfect timing for her to write another book about Victor and all his family problems, namely Victoria "outsmarting" him and taking Newman and Locke. I'd love to watch Leann stick it to Victor with little snarky barbs. It might even finally give Nikki something to do.

So, of course, it won't happen. 

[Khan]

It's Nina.

Oh, wait, wrong show.

Keemo had a crush on Mary Jo and she played along.

But I am almost certain they didn't consumate that crush: she was leading him on to bother Jack. So much so that there was a plot where she hired a hooker to get her off the hook of his sexual needs if I remember correctly.

And in the end when he realized that she had been involved with his father, not only did he break it off, but that was one of the stated reasons he went back to Vietnam (fact he went back to the US after that is new information as far as I can tell) because he couldn't bear the thought he had feelings for a woman who had been with his father and was disgusted with himself yada yada.
He left warning Jack she was bad news and then she was arrested for shooting Victor so I don't think there was any space for them to hookup post-departure.

I don't think there is any way for MaryJo being Allie's mother to make sense. Retcon be a retcon of course but...

 

 

[Aback]

LMAO!

My thoughts exactly.

[DramatistDreamer]

For years I had been suggesting that a return of Leanna Love would have been a great thing, especially when they had the anniversary of Ruthless or even when they commemorated Eric Braeden's time on Y&R by having Leanna put out a new edition to Ruthless. I said that years ago! But would JG botch any return of Barbara Crampton? It just seems like, in his hands, any return of Leanna Love would be destined to disappoint.
