Karla Mosley's acting was just amazing, amazing, amazing today March 3.  Layered. Real.

I swear I've known some of these people (er.. fictional characters who feel real) for ages!

YES! YEEES! YES! I'm already seeing Emmy worthy material.

No, I think Anita loves her daughter... she is just not enabling her. The others are and it's bad. Anita is going to be the Mona to Dani's Erica. Someone that brings her down to Earth and tells her how it is. 

You can love your child and not like them. Anita does not like Dani. She is more concerned about looks and appearances. Dani has some real issues that are obvious but Anita did not care bc she will do anything to preserve how the outside views the family. She and Vernon literally sacrificed Dani to protect Martin and then get mad when Dani has a breakdown.

 

I dont get or like the comparisons to Erica. Erica was not crazy. Everything she did was calculated and fueled by her own selfish desires. Dani is clearly someone suffering mental health issues. Simply scolding her is not going to bring her down to Earth. She needs to see a psychiatrist and potentially be put on meds bc there is something not right in her head. She's not a bad person but rather is fragile and broken. She's immature and emotionally stunted, bc of the way her family always treated her as a child. I think being a model was her first chance at getting independence but she never got to fulfill those dreams bc she gave it up at age 19 and became submissive to Bill. Now she is divorced, alone and never developed the proper skills to function alone as an adult. Dani is weak in a way that would never describe Erica

 

Oh and Anita is no Mona. She's more of a Stephanie Forrester type.

I bet Silkpress Sheila is going to use this weak moment for the family to... develop more and more her evil plan. 

Dani is the family's Achilles heel. And I think Vernon and his WHATEVER DANI WANTS DANI GETS treatment... is at the root of it all.

When your unhinged daughter is threatening to murder people... and the first thing you think is how to... help her... erase the damage she did to her and the family's reputation... I mean... that's a spoiled BRAT narcissist you raised. 

 

Anyone else pick up on hints that Derek is potentially abusive/controlling towards Ashley?

Um... I am not saying that Anita is Mona... I am not an idiot... after all. Or that Dani is Erica-copy. No. I am just saying they are going to have a similar dynamic of a mother-daughter duo with the mother telling the daughter how it is and keeping it real. You are taking my words too directly. LOL.

Yes his look when Andre and Ashley were taking the picture was really weird.

There's no way a guy named Derek is not at least bisexual. 🤣

When Leslie is unmasked we are going to have a Dani and a Dana.

I want to know that, too.


 

Eva was raised by Leslie.
The Duprees took in Hayley.

I knew that, of course. Just going too fast! Thanks for the course correction. 

And congrats to everyone who thought this was real and not a fake-out! 

THANK GOD.

 

I just don’t care about any scenes involving Ashley or any characters in her orbit. 

Did anyone catch today's writing credits? I didn't see any.

Dani, short for Danielle, which is the female for Daniel. Isn't Dana that also?

That really wasn’t Mona and Erica’s relationship though lol
