There is no disconnect, and calling it one doesn't make it so.

I responded directly to what you said. If you disagree with me, fine, but don't act as if I'm in some parallel universe, making comments out of nowhere.

I made multiple posts here -- probably too many -- because the discussion went beyond the storyline to implications that I condone and excuse rape. Pushing back against that does not mean I think "it's all about me," and I'm not going to run away when someone thinks of me as a rape apologist.

OMG...I just couldn't with Hope today. I can't believe she told Deacon that she was tired of people telling her they had "changed" when they hadn't, and that's why she can't trust Sheila. Uhhhh, hello? That's the same exact same relationship she has with Thomas, the guy who drove Emma off a cliff and told Hope her baby was dead. The scene would have been so much better if Sheila had pointed out her hypocrisy. I do think Sheila's visit needs to wrapped up. There's just so much you can do with the character after all she's done. She should push Liam off a cliff on her way out though. It would make more sense to bring back the kid she had with Massimo to be the "new Sheila" without all the baggage.

The whole RJ/Luna/Zende mess is a...mess. If I never hear the word "mints" again. Just when they started to do something with Zende and this actor for the first time, they give the character this horrendous storyline. There's no way he wouldn't have known something was off with Luna. He was just at a party right before pledging her love for RJ, and then she was waiting for Zende in his bed??? Not only does it make him look like a rapist, despite what all the characters are saying, but also an a*&hole for sleeping with his cousin's girlfriend!

I was hoping to see an early prewiew of Hollis instead I got....

The rapist telling the victim maybe the rape happened for a reason. So they can be together more easily. The rapist tells the victim to end it with the boyfriend to be with him.

What horrible writing by Rex M. Best and Bradley Bell.

OMG...could this storyline get ANY worse? Zende's solution is for Luna to break up with RJ and be with HIM??? Really?

Probably the only person who hates this story more than the viewers is the actor that plays Zende. They've completely written the character into a horrible corner. 

Also, if I hear the word "mints" one more damn time...

Meanwhile, Hope's at the office making out with the dude who told her her baby was dead. This show is so misogynistic. Time and time again, women on the show turn to men who treat them like trash. How many times has Ridge tossed Brooke aside, for instance? Liam waffled back and forth between Steffy and Hope treating both of them like crap for years.

I would love to see this show written by a WOMAN for a change.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      It definitely flowed beautifully. So much that I was annoyed when Vanessa/Doug because I wanted to get back to the party. I know it was intentional to build up tension and suspense. It worked. lol. I'm glad it was there in hingsight because it gave us that great conversation between Doug and Vanessa. Foreshadowing? And yesss!!! This episode was sooo old school soap giving beat after beat after beat leading up to the unveiling of Eva as Ted's daughter. And we still have plenty of fallout/aftereffects to work through.   Speaking of...Bill, Bill, Bill lol. Good to have confirmation HE was the scary lawyer.   I'm sure I will have a busy Monday, but I can't wait for it. I don't know what I'm looking forward to more. Probably Anita vs Silk Press Sheila tbh. And yes, I feel they will be matching each other 'blow for blow.'

      And if they go there, it could also be tied to Johnny completely cutting him off, possibly going to work for Titan, etc.

      @AbcNbc247 maybe it is just that they've gone to that well too often, and I don't like when DAYS goes dark, but I'm OK with EJ abusing drugs, and just skipping the whole sobriety part. Side note: experiencing hallucinations of my son killing me would be enough for me to never want to take a pill again.

      Part of the reason that Courtney worked at OLTL was because the show had an actual character for her to play.  One that was somewhat different than her character on AW, and after the way she was treated over at AW.. it had to have been nice to be courted onto a new soap that actually valued your contributions.

      I figured the "long" was already implied

      The show has finally figured out the correct scene to have at the end of the episode. The one thing I loved about the show today was that we got a pretty decent length scene of Silk Press Sheila at the celebration without any cutaways.  It reminded me of an old school soap opera scene that would run several moments (i.e. Renee's long speech going after the upstanding citizens of Salem on Days in 1983 before her murder).   I think Anita and Silk Press Sheila would be evenly matched.. she would be the one person that Anita would have to work to get the best of.    I do agree that Derek/Ashley were probably cut from the episode.. and maybe their scenes will be used in a different episode.  The scenes that were included (Bill/Hayley and Vanessa/Doug) had something to do with the scenes going on at the party.    Unpopular opinion:  I actually prefer Bill with Hayley.. .they make a good couple.
