Happy (early) 40th Anniversary, Mary Beth Evans!
Today was a love letter to Kayla, Steve, their life together and their family. It's always great to get episodes like this that pay tribute to the actor, character and their history on the show. The flashbacks only make these episodes better. I'm so glad that we got to see clips of Steve and Kayla's weddings, their time with Benjy, and Stephanie's and Joey's births. They were also really sweet and dorky throughout the episode as well. And so were Stephanie and Alex, even though I hope that the conflict for them isn't over yet and continues for a very long time. I like that Roman was included in today's episode too.
Too bad that we're not going to see Joey and Tripp though. Or Tripp and Wendy's wedding.
And welcome back, Jack! It would be nice if you got to have scenes with your son too.
I thought that he did a good job today, but having him spend most of the episode with Gwen wasn't a good idea. Regardless of Gwen, he played such a big part in Kayla and Steve's history that he should've spent more time with them. The little scene at the end was ok, but it should've gone on longer.
Xander/Gabi didn't really fit in with the rest of the episode, but I thought they both did a good job today. And I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens in this storyline, especially since Gabi thinks Theo was the one that ratted her out to Philip.
