I guess it's historic in terms of it having happened, but I don't think it's all that remarkable, except as one of the more pointless things that they've ever done. What exactly are the stakes here? Allie/Channel talked about it, everyone consented (thank god!), nobody is married, there don't seem to be any new confused feelings. Unless one or both is pregnant, which doesn't seem like it'd be fun to watch, what did they really accomplish that should be celebrated? 

It's not even that scandalous now that the show's out of the midday slot on a basic network.

I'll admit, I'm probably partly annoyed because I feel like the character of Allie, and the actress who plays her, deserves more than this. I'm also annoyed because I think it's socially irresponsible in a couple different ways. And, I'm kind of over stories about sexual orientation. Have the characters be whatever, then give them jobs or friends or schemes, like most of the rest of them. Y'know, like they're most other people.  

I'd probably have been into it if it were different characters. Or if it happened while the three of them were doing something else- like looking for a cure for Marlena/Kayla/Kate or something. They need to have an adventure at some point, right, to get their own Orpheus/Kristen/Jan? 

As it was, it's like some rando's fantasy, with a little bit of a woke-lite presentation to keep it classy. But, I guess I'm feeling something about it, unlike a lot of the other plot points right now, so they clearly know what they're doing.

Well, just me, I think it was a big deal because I think anything that is new, never been done, is exactly that, a big deal. I don't think any US soap has ever dramatized a threesome before. And in addition to being the first, they did it well. Now I could nit pick it to death, but I'm not going to. Now I am very interested in seeing how the show plays out the time after. I'd like to see good story. Bring it on!

People that are so upset over this chaste threesome. Must never watch anything on cable or streaming services. I'm also pretty sure back in their day they were doing all kinds of fun depravities. I've seen more in a Cinemax fake porn movie. Still found the encounter inorganic. forced and clumsy.

If either or both are pregnant, I think it wrecks the entire idea of the threesome and just having a good time. 
 

We’re supposed to applaud them for being adults who can do what they want in their own bedrooms. But I’d expect adults to know better regarding condoms or birth control — especially since Allie and Chanel haven’t even been married for 3 months.

I have nothing against threesomes, but this was just so poorly written and smacked of a wannabe event minus any depth of character motivation. A big fat who cares. On the other hand, I found Chad and Stephanie’s scenes much more realistic and endearing.

How unfortunate that RH’s acting is getting worse, not better. 🫣

Well, if I wanted to see adults be responsible then I wouldn't be watching a soap

Personally, I would've had the threesome happen with Chanel/Tripp/Allie as a misguided attempt to sort out their feelings for each other. It doesn't work out as intended and Chanel/Allie make it out as a couple while it triggers Tripp to leave town.

Seriously lol

Does Allie even know (or care) that both of her grandmothers are dying?

This writing team would be pretty stupid if there’s no conflict from the aftermath of the threesome

Peacock DOOL 10-12-22

Cast of Characters: Chanel, Paulina, Stephanie, Chad, Alex, Stefan, Gabi, EJ, Johnny, Wendy, Li and Sloan

Paulina to Chanel who has just arrived, Well, have a seat.

Alex to Stephanie, No, I am saying you are the biggest hypocrite I know. You gave me this whole song & dance about how we couldn't work together & do even as much as have a light lunch together! But you've hired someone new to work for you & slept with him on the first night! That's how I'm saying you are such a big hypocrite! All your rules don't all apply equally to the same person, I see. Why didn't you just tell me you're not into me instead of making up something about the job and sexual harassment?! Sleeping with the new guy that you just met, really.

At the DiMera mansion, Johnny opens the door to, who are you? I am Wendy Chin. Who are you? I am Johnny DiMera. Wendy then says she is looking for Stefan DiMera. Johnny says she has missed him & that he just left so it will likely be awhile before he returns.

Stefan, faced with Gabi in the flesh, has a kind of an interior flashback: he imagines saying that he cares for her. He has a quizziczl look on his face. They sent him to HR to look for Li.

Li tells the Head of Security that that is Wendy Chin & she should be detained & then moved off & away from the offices. Li says to Stefan that he will Li called Wendy a conniving little bitch. With disloyalty like that in the company we may have to clean house. There's more going on here than meets the eye, some canoodlng & canoeing & ultimately there is sexual harassment charges being made. This is my sister Wendy Chin & she is head of IT for DeMira working out of Fairbanks, Alaska. That's where she should be now!

Paulina & Chanel sit back down with the folder on the table between them. Wendy is concerned that there might be other blackmmail attempts being made in the future. I took care of plenty while you were away last ight.

EJ announces to the room that they've received a credible threat but that Li's & Wendy's father is the Chairman of the Board & he will lock this one down & go onto check for mutinies at other DiMera sites. EJ is only waiting for the proxy and the documents. Then they will call a meeting to hold a vote & since we will have the votes lined up we will celebrate its success! Stefan turned to Gabi & said, in his meanest tone, clean out your desk!

Wendy speaks up & says … but no one is paying her any attention. Her plan is not working out so well.

Back at Steve & Kayla's, well you're not going to lie this once you hear but last night there was no person sleeping with any other person here or anywhere. You might notice that we have on different clothes than we did last night. Alex says that he misunderstood what he is sure he saw last night. Now he sees that they did not sleep together last night & he will just go like the jackass he is.

Chanel is saying that she should have taken care of this when it happened. But, at the time it appeared that paying some hush money & it being in college & a stupid mistake that it would go away & it has been gone all this time. Is it now under control? Paulina said that Sloan had given her 24 hours & there was a settlement offer, which was basically extorting them.

Gabi tried to explain to Stefan that she can tell that something is triggering memories in him & she thinks it is when he looks into her eyes.

Paulina tells Sloan to take it up with Stephanie & to get out of  her office.

Chanel again says she is sorry.

Alex says so I've been a jackass. They told me about your mother & how sick she is, I hope that she gets better soon.

Alex says, So, you are not into me & you have found someone else you might be into & I'm a big boy & I can accept that. And, then Alex leaves.

Wendy is trying to hack into the local DiMera server. As the IT head out of Fairbanks Alaska she should be able to do this. Johnny wants to know how she ended up there in the first place. She explained that it would'nt be right for the baby sister to show up the #1 son.

Wendy tells Johnny that she had tried more usual ways to get transferred to DiMera Headquarters here. Johnny told her that it was a snake pit, that who was CEO changed all the time & that it was a toxic environment.

Stefan shouted at Gabi again that he would hold her accountable for having his heart taken out of  him  & given to Julie! Gabi wants to know where Rolf is. Come to think of it everyone wants to know where Rolf is. And, no one has seen him.

(to be continued)

Paulina says she is so sorry that Chanel had worked so hard to keep this covered up. Chanel began, my secret, .. Paulina interrupted saying she would just drop out of the race. Chanel is very upset by this idea.

Wendy says that Dr. Rolf brainwashed Stefan to make him hate Gabi.

EJ says Li has no chance. Li says his father is the Chairman of the Board & he won't allow anyone to throw him off the property. Li then make a surprising offer, he says he will cut ties with Gabi. EJ says he still will not tell anyone where Rolf is. Gabi says that she can tell that he really still loves her. That the truth of the matter is that his feelings really haven't changed. This infuriates him.

Chanel if we make this payment they will just be back for more over & over until they bleed us dry, so Paulina is going to call Sloane & arrange a meeting. Here is our settlement offer. Johnny do not say anything to your father about thisl.

Wendy & Johnny agree to work as a team & they shake on it.
