The debutante feud stuff was great today, even if I've always found Anastasia a ropey actress. If they actually commit to this being a real event unlike WinterFest (which I increasingly suspect was fumbled due to rewrites around the renewal) that will be a very smart move.
I am of two minds re: the Impaler material. On the one hand yes, they definitely could've shown the guy getting dropped off; on the other I've recently watched similar stories in classic '80s ATWT, EON, etc. where they did still have some of that background crime stuff offscreen to spur main events. I prefer it when it's always seen myself, and we should've at least seen the guy dropped at the hospital. No need for a bunch of random scenes with snitches and criminals who we don't know alone together.
I do still think Kial is a red herring; Carlton, the established romantic interest, will be the Impaler. I hope the same holds for Grayson, who I really like and who is somehow making me tolerate Ashley. I am here for the storyline, provided more of it starts happening in front of us.
