Oh my! Jason choose Tracy (well Monica really) over Sonny regarding the kids - and she hugged him and he actually reciprocated. And Tracy's appeals really did win him over too, judging by the way they were staring into each other's eyes towards the end.

And then of course poor Sonny's having heart palpitations outside after leaving.

Of course, Sonny's scenes with Tracy before Jason arrived were also good too.

On the other side of town unfortunately Joss has blown it already, having - as Anna said - tipped off Cyrus to where he should cover his tracks.

I liked the scenes between Drew and Alexis regarding Scout

Felicia had plenty to do, firstly trying to calm Carly and Jason down and later with Emma at the bar.

The bar scenes were ok too, though I'm annoyed Cody lost all of his money, he really shouldn't have been so stupid.

And I enjoyed the Liz/Lucky scenes, first with Cyrus and later on their own.

Jason has evolved a bit over the last few years since his return in the late 2010s re: the Qs, largely IMO because the show was trying to compensate for Billy Miller's NuJason/Drew being much closer to them and to Monica than the genuine article was and they wanted to make Steve look good too (which is why they also tried to graft the Drew/Jake relationship onto him, which never quite worked). But this is a big step and Steve did bring it.

I think the roots of it, though, are in the scenes in the 2000s that Jason had after Alan and A.J.'s deaths where he apologized to both of them for his choices and mistakes. I think he even told A.J. (who was 'dead,' naturally) that he'd been wrong to take Michael from him. He was emotional at those times and again now. It's not about to make me care much for Jason, but he has changed minutely more and more over time for various reasons both in story and BTS.

"Kai's not getting up! Kai's not getting up!"

On an episode with a sea of really good scenes, that was SO bad. None of the football stuff is working. Trina going to the game to watch Kai? Of course not -- she's in a booth at the bar with Gio, who has his back turned to the TV.

And don't get me started on the left turn (ANOTHER one) to Cody's character, writing him without any of the common sense they've spent the last year giving him.

    • I do agree that I wish there was more gay representation in terms of singles. I also had hoped we'd get a Black couple since it was a Black soap and I don't know that we've ever seen that on a US soap.  With that said, it's still early days so I can imagine we'll get that at some point. I am impressed they launched with as much LGBT representation considering how US soaps can be.
    • Thank you. I know we're all supposed to see that BTG is progressive when it comes to queer characters, but it's telling that they won't commit to showcasing gay or bi males who are single and looking. That relationship couldn't be any more traditional. Will we ever get a bedroom scene with Smitty and Martin? I have my doubts.
    • This is a pretty huge thing IMO, but I guess we will see what happens? Can't get any worse then already. 
    • This can be difficult for a soap to depict. So far she's only shown an interest in women. Will a man come into her life? If she commits to a male, there will be  backlash, but if it's women only, them where is the bi/queer aspect? Personally, I would have liked a single gay male on the show dealing with hook ups/relationships etc. Smitty/Martin married with kids is limiting in those terms.
