  • I am loving the character of June.
  • The swap-off of Anita and Vernon is nice. They are a very in-sync couple and seem to do well at teaming up. That's amazing.
  • I appreciate the more level-headed conversation between Bill and Dani; it's a nice change of pacing for them.
  • Deadbeat's attitude needs to be adjusted ASAP. I don't trust him one iota. At all. Bradley deserves better than an abusive husband. As do the children.
  • I love that June is firm in her convictions and her stances; she won't allow anyone to penetrate them. I can tell she has a rich history in her life and hope we get to explore it.
  • Just what Theodore needs, Andre, is alcohol. Ugh. Why not leave him alone with the consequences of his actions?
  • Just like with Eva, Katherine is calling out the truth: Bradley is a better husband than Deadbeat deserves and is just as much a part of the Dupre family as anyone else is!
  • Derek, you do not need a bigger apartment; what you need is to get rid of that ugly-ass chair you named and move back into your own place.
  • Deadbeat, what do you think huffing and puffing with former Daddy is going to do?
  • Eva is right. Disappointing. My heart genuinely hurts for her.
  • Nicole asserting herself with Andre knowing of the affair and not telling her? Oh, that's going to cut!
  • Oh, are we about to get Bill versus Bradley right now?! This could be a juicy-ahh showdown that I am completely here for.
  • Wait, so Bill requested Bradley's presence? What is up his sleeve?
  • Not Miss Dana showing up at the final hour! This is going to be a showdown. I know it is!

Notes:

  • The new hairstyle on Arielle Prepetit (Naomi) is very cute.
  • The hotel suite is a very nice, sleek design. Almost reminds me of the Country Club's rooms from the first week. It's nice seeing a different-looking hotel type of design from what other soaps continue to show us.
  • The food at Orphey Gene's and Uptown continues to look undeniably delicious; I'd be more inclined to eat at the former, but I'd happily visit both establishments.

I’m not going to take Dani seriously going off on Ted when she was willing to overlook all of Bill’s affairs in her own marriage and only got her feelings hurt when her ass was left.

Absolutely hate that she’s getting a dedicated showcase scene like that - I think this is where MVJ’s personal friendship with Karla Mosley removes objectivity when writing for Dani as a character sometimes.

I have no use for Derek but I was happy to see them exploring Naomi and Ashley's friendship again. More of that, please! I was stunned when Ashley asked Naomi about the Ted drama. We actually got a lot of interesting combos today. Tomas/Eva, Kat/Smitty, a rare Martin/Ted sighting and Vanessa/Nicole, among others. This was a good breather from all of the drama of the past few days.

Because of pre-emptions I expected a random ending and not a proper cliffhanger but I literally jumped when I saw Leslie walk into Nicole's house! That was the perfect way to end things and along with the prevent, I'm excited to finally get back to a full 5 episodes next week!

I disagree.  I think MVJ has set up each character in the cast with specific traits over the past few months, including Dani.  Now we are seeing each react to Nicole's situation in their own way.  Dani being loud, Martin being raging, Kat being indignant and comforting, Anita being encouraging, Vernon being loving, and Pamela just being there unquestioning.***

If Dani had become a wallflower, that would not have fit her character.

*** Edit: I meant Vanessa, not Pamela. sorry.

      Yes. That's called good writing.

      interesting idea.  That makes sense, as MVJ seems to have set up each character development (traits) for future plot developments.

      I really enjoyed today's episode. It showcased a lot of the other cast and I saw hints of storyline potential (Smitty & Bill). Martin definitely has some anger issues and I recall him being overly scared about protecting his family and having all the doors locked, coming out of one of his "dreams". There's obviously a lot going on there and I can't wait to find out more. I'm thinking June is going to be more than just the issue story of the week. I think she just might be related to one or more of our main characters. As for Tomas, yes, Alex Alegria is not the strongest actor, but he's pretty to look at and he emotes something. I'm just not sure what that something is yet.

      No. Absolutely No. I don't know who this is... since it's just some random Twitter quote... But NO. The only parallel between OG Caroline's leukemia and Liam's tumor... is that they are both having cancer. That's it. Other than that... I see absolutely no similarities.  Caroline hid her sickness almost till the last moment. She was also giving the viewers signs that she is not well for days if not weeks before the diagnosis. It was not like Liam... falling down and hitting his head on a table and bam he has a tumor. Caroline's storyline broke our hearts, because of her attempt to live out the rest of her days with dignity and grace. It was written slowly and with care. What we are seeing right now with Liam is the complete opposite. It's begging the viewers for empathy and cheap tears. It's so in your face and trashy... I can't believe they are using cancer for something like this. Bradley Bell should never do terminal stuff again in his stories. It's borderline offensive to people who actually have lost relatives to cancer. To me it is.

      I was thinking that June could be Kat's mother and Eva is Nicole and Ted's.

      You won't even miss her because Nola will be dominating the show till Raven comes back. Literally... there will be no boring second. Nola is just starting. You won't believe what will follow. Haha. And then as soon as that storyline is finishing up, Raven is back in top form.

      Well good for you. But that's what makes us people. We like and dislike different things.
