But can't we get Giggly Heffa off the canvas and thus the budget instead? 😜 

We’re saving that for when Ian does extract his revenge he causes an elevator at Newman Towers to go into freefall thinking Victor is on it but really it contains Billy, Chelsea, Phyllis, and Abby.

I sum up Sharon/Phyllis storyline as "what is this mess?"

I put it on CBS and caught the ending.

 

What kind of cliffhanger was that? Sharon giving Phyllis a bottle of water? Zzzzzzzzzzz

Along with 20 other characters.   

While Nick would be laughable interesting as the *mastermind*, I'd love to see Mariah/Daniel revert to their dark sides, but it won't happen. It would be a smart full circle: Daniel and Mariah (Cassie's proxy).

My initial bet: Lauren (with or without Michael) - both have it in them and plenty of reasons to end the animosity.

I'm moved my money to *fake* Alan because Traci is simply not meant to have happiness! Plus I remembered he really wanted to talk to Sharon about some study at the GCAC. It was a weird encounter, which is why it stuck out. And he's supposedly been in Chicago for a long time.

As @Taoboi noted the scenes are watch-worthy only because SC/MS play off each other so well. 

It's hard to believe that Cassie passed 20 years ago this May. It would be appropriate for Sharon/Phyllis to commemorate it with a truce.

And I really hate to admit that because I am a big Saw fan. But both SC and MS have given some good moments over the last week. And goodness knows Sharon and Giggly Heffa do need to have it out. It would be nice if they could go to some form of a truce. 

 

I always felt that encounter was to rope Alan into figuring out what was wrong with Sharon while also foreshadowing a Sharon/Alan/Tracey triangle once Sharon was over her latest drama while giving Alan and Tracey something to do rather than his allegedly dead twin brother. 

 

 

This Sharon and Phyllis stuff is shockingly bad. At least Passions knew it was a parody. 

3-7

 

Honestly, I really liked Friday's episode. Not a thing happened, but there were such a series of great scenes that I actually enjoyed. 

 

I know I'm sounding like a broken record, but most of it was from the Damian storyline. I loved Nate and Damian bonding and the actors really bounced off each other so well that that joke Nate gave hit near the end of the episode. And uh oh on Holden now coming across a little bit obsessed with Audra to the point that we got the unexpected Holden vs Damian fight. And of course, there's the fact of Audra lying to Nate about the extent of her relationship with Holden. Just so many possibilities with the story with people who can act.

 

It's clear after all Claire/Kyle/Summer was the B plot this past week. And I admit that I love the Victor/Claire conversation. It made me think of the Victor/Child Abby back in the day. There's a gentleness with Claire that Victor rarely shows these days so it was nice to see it. They even joked a little bit. I also loved the coda of Diane and Jack realizing that Summer is into Kyle again as Kyle is on the phone with Claire with Summer (with Kyle) and Victor (with Claire) in the background giving sinister looks. That was well-done. 

 

Sharon/Giggly Heffa in their version of SAW was C plot. Clearly treading water which makes it even more uninteresting than it is already. 

I knew I was gonna like the reveal of who was holding Sharon and Phyllis and I was right.

Whyyyyyyyy

Cousins fighting over a guy with their grandfather in the background stirring things up. I could be down for this if the execution could live up to the potential.

I could, too. 

 

But I did like that last scene. 

At first, I was kinda annoyed at Summer and crashing the dinner, but it was actually pretty organic and very Phyllis-like taking a situation and using it to her advantage.

The real surprise - Holden and Claire! I really like Holden's overall vibe.

The *game* was annoying until the scene where Sharon pushed Phyllis to admit she would've save her. The final scene was a good twist.

All that tells me is that I should probably go ahead and start this week's episodes before I get accidentally spoiled.
