I don't think so. She looked away too easily as she composed herself.

Hey, is anyone keeping score? She's almost lost it twice this year already:

1. Lulu and the bedpan

2. Luke's "I love you, Man"

And a new nickname:

1. Lambchops

We need a spreadsheet to make the Best of TQ 2009 easier next year. So far it looks like we are going to have a whole lot more material than last year, and we always forget the early year stuff.

Line of the Day:

Sc. 1 - no LuNacy

Sc. 2 - Nicholas tells Rebecca the Q's are hard to take. Edward says Tracy is unreasonable treating a stranger so badly. Tracy says it's because she is a stranger and wonders what why two smart, coniving people are so blind to the possibility that there is something off with Rebecca, and are so willing to bring her into Monica's home just becasue she looks like Emily. Nicholas tries to get them all to back off Rebecca and stop projecting their grief over Emily on to her. Tracy wonders why they haven't hired a PI to look into her and Mon/Ed roll their eyes. Tracy continues saying isn't it interesting that someone who looks just like Emily arrived in the one city where Emily used to live and stays here even though there isn't any job left. Monica threatens to throw Tracy out again. Meanwhile Luke watching everything with great interest, especially Rebecca's reaction to all of the bickering.

Sc. 3 - Edward tells Rebecca that Emily was the heart of this family and it would help Monica if she stayed here. Tracy tells says they are being played. Edward then walks to Rebecca saying ignore Tracy, they all do. Rebecca says it was a mistake to come there and she leaves with Nicholas hot on her heals. Monica looks even more upset as Edward says that's not the way his surprise was supposed to go. Monica thanks him saying his intentions were good, to which Edward responds the road to hell is paved that way. Tracy walks over to the bar, looking smugly satisfied for the moment and Luke comes to join her with his arms crossed. Without looking at him she says he's uncustomarly silent, which is never a good thing. Doesn't he have anything to say? Luke says "Oh I have plenty to say, just not to you people".

Sc. 4 - no Tracy; Luke returns to the HS alone and asks for a drink of Scotch and 'don't get cute'. Luke says to no one in particular that history... time marching on is the problem. He wasn't an unexamined life - Ethan pours him 5 shots and Luke starts telling Ethan about his experience at the Q's, and how he used to hate Nicholas and all the things he wanted to do to the 'spud'. But now Nicholas is hurting and Luke feels he should help Nicholas with advice. Lulu walks in asking if Ethan is getting Luke drunk so he can rob him again?

Sc. 5 - no Tracy; Lulu blasts Ethan and Luke tells her to relax. Lulu doesn't understand why Luke is allowing him there, he is a con. Of course he's a con, Luke says, and he's good at it. Luke suddenly realizes Lulu is there to check out Ethan, to which she protests and says she didn't even know Ethan was there. Luke says yes she did, Ethan was here the last time then says he will leave so Lulu can find out more about Ethan. Luke leaves and Luthan square off.

Sc. 6 - no LuNacy; Rebecca returns to speak with Monica. Rebecca says she didn't want to leave everything the way it was, especially with Monica just out of the hospital. Becks says she should have left town and Monica says she's glad she stayed. Monica apologizes for Tracy and Rebecca says Tracy was just trying to protect her family, it's totally understandable. Becks goes on to say she could have handled lots of things better, including Nicholas. Monica tells her Nicholas is only trying to help and sort everything else. Rebecca has an interesting smile at Monica's words.

Sc. 7 - no Tracy; Luke finds Nicholas on the docks and tells him life doesn't rewind. Then he says the clone - to which Nicholas says the clone? She's Rebecca. Luke says it doesn't matter who she is, what matters is who she isn't. She might have Emily's eyes, but not her heart or soul. And no matter how hard Nicholas wants it, Emily is gone into the cold dark and will not come back. Nicholas knows Luke is telling the truth.

No, he wasn't mad at any of them. He was actually very distracted and his concern for Nicholas overshot everything he did after that. Tracy won't let this go if Edward won't let it go - we all know that - but Luke isn't seeing Rebecca as a Quartermaine problem, he's seeing it as a Nicholas problem.

I didn't mention it in the recaps, but Luke did humourously refer to the Q mansion as "My wife's palatial estate" to Ethan. I don't know if it's intentional, but Luke is really underscoring the point that Tracy has money to Ethan.

As I mentioned yesterday, Megan ward and Ric H. have been let go. The KissMyAss insider (who is legit and spoiled the Sebastian leaving first) and think of you fondly and also wantsomedish all confirmed.

I have heard this also from other sources so I think it is pretty much true--although I guess offical word will be the true test.

The bad news is they said that LC's fans should gear up to get vocal right now. I am guessing she is next or going to be bumped to recurring--in which case maybe she will just leave.

That sucks and even if you are not a big Monica fan, it is worth a phone call to support the Qs...

Also...now more than ever the comment lines are being monitored for feedback. They are looking for ANYTHING garnering a postiive reaction at this point so be vocal for Tracy!!

    • I think the arrival of the Spauldings (Alan/Elizabeth/Phillip) caused the erosion of Sara's character on the show since Elizabeth took over Sara's place in the whole Justin/Jackie story.  Sara's brief marriage to another deceptive man sounded like it paled in comparison to the previous deceptive man story that she had played the decade beforehand.. and it was probably done because of the whole Alan/Jackie/Mike/Elizabeth cluster that took off story wise.   I know the show had introduced Brandy, the woman Justin cheated on Jackie with... but I don't believe she lasted more than a year.. and didn't make much of an impression. While the Dobson's were good at writing/juggling multiple characters/stories.. they weren't perfect though they did manage to make use of characters not in the front burner like Sara, Ann, etc. I do know that Sara/Adam looked to be starting up at the end of the Dobson era with a jealous/regretful Barbara looking on.. which played out during the Roger/Holly rape story and Hollys prison story.   I don't know if Marland was as inspired by that story when he took over
    • If you ever make it to the Paley Center in NYC (fka Museum of TV and Radio), in their viewing room, you can watch Days 1/1/73 featuring Denise Alexander as Susan. It’s her last month on the show before switching to GH.
    • Overall I was impressed with this week and fall out from the revealation.  I am looking forward to seeing the Nicole/Dana showdown next week.  I do wonder if June is going to be tied to Hayley.  
    • I thought Adam and Sara got married? Although I do not remember any mention of her when Adam returned for Blake's weddings. But MA certainly got the short end of the stick storywise, as Marland's obsession with therapy reared it's head. 
    • Didn’t Meg Bennett return to SFT as a writer in the last few years. I always wondered if they tried to get her back as Liza.
    • Millette Alexander got the short end of the stick once they killed off Joe. The Justin thing was a non-starter. Then she was briefly married to Alan's corrupt lawyer and HE was killed off. She was paired briefly with Adam and that ended because she believed Holly over Roger about the rape. Definitely, Marland had zero interest in her except as the therapist for the many, many of his female characters who needed therapy. It's not odd she left the show. One of the rare 1978 episodes on YT shows Alan going to Cedars for a physical check-up. He ends up with Sarah as his doctor. In between making mysoginistic comments about women doctors, he also openly flirts with her. It's very obvious they were chem testing Sarah and Alan. It's a really good scene. Bernau is both obnoxious and charming and Millette is amazing, trying to be pleasant and profesional without rolling her eyes at him, but at the same time maybe a LITTLE bit attracted to him. An interesting what-might-have-been. So it appears the Dobsons were actively looking for someone to pair her with, they just never found the right one for a long-term story.

      You've inspired me to add my 2 cents about this product placement debacle.  I absolutely HATE the way they are doing product placement in BTG. I really hope this doesn't catch on or evolve into more and more of these moments. It's incredibly off-putting to place them in a highly dramatic moment where we are still on the emotional journey with the character. What is next - Dani spraying the house while having a nervous breakdown? It makes me not want to buy the product they're selling. LOL. That's just me.
